YOUNG HAS ALLOWED JUST NINE GOALS IN EIGHT GAMES
Most coaches will tell you, you need to have a solid defense to win games. When you allowed just eight goals in eight games, your goalie...in Field Hockey...is going to get a lot of the praise and credit along with her defensive unit. Louisville is (6-2) and the squad is now 10th in the latest rankings. Emily Young does the net duty and has for four years, the senior out of Houston, Texas climbed up thru the Cards ranks to be where she is today. It's the second time this season she has Defender of the Week shared honor
Young redshirted her first season on campus in 2023. She was a backup to Merljin van der Vegt. In 2024 she was the keeper in Cards wins over American University, Cornell, Ball St. and UC Davis. As the starter in 2025.she got a little better
6-2 and 4-0 so far this year .We'll take in, especiilly since the losses are against #1 Northwestern and #2 Iowa.
Keep sending them back without scoring, Cards defense and let the offense maneuver and drive.
