EDISON, N.J. – Fairfield University Women's Soccer striker Amelie Stewart was named the Metro Conference Offensive Player of the Week after leading the Stags with five points on two goals and an assist in the win over Saint Peter's. With her five points, Stewart has now tallied 17 points in her sophomore season while gaining the team lead with eight goals. This is her second conference weekly honor this year.

"Amelie has been a very consistent threat for us in front of goal," Head Coach David Barrett said. "I think she got herself on track on Saturday at the right time of year. We'll need her to be successful in the playoffs."
 
Stewart recorded both of her goals in a two-minute span and had a hand in the first three Fairfield scores with an assist on the opening tally. Stewart's performance helped the Stags to a 7-0 win over the Peacocks and clinched the Stags a spot in the Metro Championships.
 
This marks the sixth weekly accolade for a Fairfield student-athlete this season and the second time Stewart earned the award. For the season, she ranks sixth in the conference with eight goals which also places her in the top-100 in the country.
 
She also ranks second on the team with 17 points while also leading the team in shot percentage.
 
Stewart and the Stags will close out the regular season when they make the short trek to face crosstown rivals Sacred Heart on Wednesday night at 7pm.
