Zoe Mikles, Katie Bloom Sweep Landmark Field Hockey Awards

TOWSON, Md. - Junior Zoe Mikles (Jarrettsville, Md./North Harford) and first year Katie Bloom (Warrenton, Va./Kettle Run) of the Goucher College field hockey team swept the Landmark Conference weekly field hockey awards on Monday afternoon.  Mikles was named the league's Offensive Athlete of the Week, while Bloom was selected as Defensive Athlete of the Week.

Mikles totaled four goals last week as the Gophers posted wins over Meredith (3-1) and Eastern Mennonite (3-0).  She posted a hat trick in last Monday's win over the Avenging Angels, while Mikles also scored the first goal in Wednesday's victory over the Royals.  She has recorded five goals over the season's first three games.

Bloom started both games in goal for Goucher last week, allowing just the one goal against Meredith.  She posted nine saves in the win against the Avenging Angels, while Bloom made one save en route to her first collegiate shutout against EMU on Wednesday.  She has started all three goals in goal thus far and owns a 0.67 goals-against average and .889 save percentage.

Off to a 3-0 start for the first time since 2014, Goucher returns to action Wednesday night with a 7 pm contest at Lancaster Bible.
