Mia Baldinger, WLAX, Defensive, New Paltz

Baldinger had a career week for the Hawks. The sophomore totaled two ground balls with a caused turnover, to go along with a goal and two assists in a 14-5 win over Kean Wednesday. Against St. Joseph's-Long Island, she was the catalyst in a 22-5 rout. Down two players defensively, Baldinger was moved into the backer role of the Hawks zone defense and thrived playing in the spot for the first time. Baldinger forced eight caused turnovers - which was one shy of tying the single game program record that was set by teammate Morgan Woolley two days prior, surpassing the previous record of six. She also added a team- and career-high six ground balls with three goals and a game-high five assists with a game-high eight points.
