Emily Johnson of the regionally-ranked St. Olaf College women's soccer team collected her third Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (MIAC) Women's Soccer Offensive Player of the Week accolade of the season on Monday.
Johnson was honored with the accolade for the third time in four weeks this season after recording four goals and one assist in St. Olaf's two victories last week. The senior became the Oles' all-time leader in goals scored with two tallies and an assist in a 5-1 win over UW-Stout Polytechnic on Monday before claiming the all-time points record by scoring both goals in a 2-0 victory against Augsburg on Saturday.
Johnson currently leads all of NCAA Division III with 14 goals this season and has scored at least one goal in each of her last eight games. She has scored multiple goals five times this season, including in each of the last three games.
The Oles will take on nationally-ranked Carleton College at 4 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 29 at Carleton's Bell Field. The Knights were ranked No. 24 nationally in last week's United Soccer Coaches Poll.
