STANFORD, Calif. – Stanford junior Makenzie Fischer was named MPSF/Kap7 Player of the Week when the conference announced its weekly honors on Tuesday afternoon. Fischer has won the award in each of her three weeks of eligibility this season.
Fischer continued her torrid start to 2019 with another six-goal performance in Stanford's 17-6 win at No. 11 UC Davis on Saturday afternoon. She had three in the first quarter, one in the second and two in the third to score six for the fourth time in the last five games.
The junior is averaging 5.00 goals per game, has had multi-score efforts in each one of Stanford's seven games and has been responsible for 24 percent of the Cardinal's scoring offense (35 of 147 goals) this season.
Fischer and the Cardinal are on the road again next weekend at the Barbara Kalbus Invitational hosted by UC Irvine. Stanford's tournament starts on Friday, Feb. 22 against CSUN at 11:15 a.m.
