Women's Water Polo | February 19, 2020

PHILADELPHIA -- Women's water polo picked up a weekly accolade as junior Karle Linden was named MAAC Defensive Player of the Week, the conference announced on Wednesday.

Linden has been a key component of the Explorers' defense all season long and this past weekend was no different. She finished first on the team with nine steals and second with four blocks as La Salle went 2-2 in her hometown of Erie. In close wins over McKendree and Gannon, she combined to tally seven steals and a pair of rejections.

La Salle's number six will be back in action on Thursday against Princeton and then a few days later at the Red Fox Invite.
