JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Bellarmine University lacrosse's
Joe Alie has been recognized as the ASUN co-Offensive Player of the Week, the league office announced Monday.
Alie shared the honor with Air Force's Caelan Driggs.
In the season finale Saturday at Queens, Alie piled up a single-game program-record seven goals in Bellarmine's 16-12 victory. The sophomore attack added an assist, with his goal tally and his eight points both representing career highs.
Alie netted two goals in the first quarter, one in the second, three in the third and one in the fourth. The third-period output was particularly important, helping Bellarmine build a 13-8 cushion after the Knights had a slim 8-7 halftime advantage. The native of Aurora, Colorado, sank seven of his 10 shots in the contest.
This is Alie's first career ASUN weekly honor. He finished the season with 45 goals, the fourth most in program history.
