The duo impressed in a 12-6 win over UMass Lowell
AMHERST, Mass. – Following strong performances in Wednesday's win over UMass Lowell, Kassidy Morris and Sienna Diglio have earned MAC weekly awards, as announced on Tuesday. Morris was named the Offensive Player of the Week for the second time this season, with Diglio garnering Defensive Player of the Week honors.
Morris finished with seven points (five goals, two assists) in UMass' 12-6 win over the defending America East co-champion River Hawks. She tallied five points (three goals and two assists) in the second half alone, as the Minutewomen outscored the River Hawks 8-1 in the final 30 minutes to turn a 5-4 halftime deficit into a 12-6 win. In total, Morris had a hand in more than half of UMass' goals on the aftertnoon. Overall, Tuesday marked Morris' third time in five games of 2026 with 5+ points.
Diglio was sensational in posting a career-high five caused turnovers, which were also the most by any MAC player this season and tied for the 12th most in the nation in 2026. She added three groundballs and a draw control. She was a key part of a defense that allowed just six goals and only 11 shots on goal and only 15 total shots. The Minutewomen held UMass Lowell to its fewest shots in a game (15) since Mar. 8, 2023. The Massachusetts defense allowed just two second-half shots, as the offense scored eight times to pull away. Overall, Diglio has four groundballs and 10 caused turnovers on the season.
The Minutewomen return to action on Saturday when they host UConn at 3 p.m. at Garber Field.
