CORAL GABLES, Fla. — University of Miami goalkeeper Melissa Dagenais was named ACC Co-Defensive Player of the Week, announced Tuesday by the conference office.
Dagenais recorded a season-high eight saves in the Hurricanes’ historic 1-0 victory over Boston College. The junior goalie posted her fourth clean sheet of the season, helping Miami claim its first-ever road win against the Eagles and its fourth win in the all-time series.
The Saint-Hubert, Quebec, native’s shutout was the first by a Hurricane in conference play since Oct. 25, 2018, when Miami downed ninth-ranked Florida State, 1-0, in overtime. Her free kick with 13 seconds remaining in the contest set up the Canes’ game-winning goal in the final second of regulation.
