LANCASTER, Pa. – Senior goalkeeper Charlotte Schurman (Manchester, Md./Manchester Valley) has been named the Centennial Conference Defensive Player of the Week in field hockey for the week of September 7-13. This is the first time Schurman has won the Centennial's weekly award.

Schurman stopped 20 shots and had a .909 save percentage in a pair of games last week. On Wednesday at third-ranked Salisbury, the senior netminder turned away 14 shots, one off her career-high. In Saturday's 1-0 victory against visiting Susquehanna, Schurman stopped six shots, including a save with 51 seconds to preserve the lead and shutout.
 
Schurman is the first Shorewoman to earn the defensive player of the week award from the conference in field hockey since when Kate Gromacki '24 earned the defensive player of the week award from the Centennial on October 10, 2023.
