This season, USA Lacrosse will celebrate the accomplishments of players across Divisions I, II and III each Tuesday with Player of the Week recognition.
Players of the Week are selected by USA Lacrosse Magazine staff and contributors based on a variety of factors, including individual performance and impact on team success.
Cardin Stoller, Rutgers
Stoller, a redshirt freshman, has established himself as one of the top goalies in the Big Ten ever since a 15-save performance in a 13-5 win over Loyola on Feb. 24. He put together his latest masterpiece, and his career-best performance, on Saturday against UMass.
Stoller made 19 saves and stuffed Grant Breyo as the clock hit zero, preserving a 10-9 Rutgers win.
Eamon Hall, Adelphi
Bentley and Adelphi have a knack for delivering great games. They played three outstanding contests a season ago, and the first installment of 2024 was a good one as well. Stealing the show was Eamon Hall, who scored at least one goal in each quarter of the game and finished with eight total.
He was doing it all. He scored twice on man-up. He scored assisted, and he scored unassisted. With the score tied at six in the third quarter, Hall scored Adelphi’s seventh, eighth, 10th, 11th and 12th goals en route to a 12-9 win.
Judge Murphy, St. Lawrence
St. Lawrence and Christopher Newport played the game of the weekend. The Saints were hot to start, but the Captains battled back. The Saints went on a big third-quarter run, and Christopher Newport had a huge fourth quarter to tie it and send it to OT.
The constant through it all was Judge Murphy. He finished with a hat trick and two assists, the same line he had against York the day before, and hit the winner to keep St. Lawrence undefeated. Murphy now sits at 45 points on the season, including 30 goals, in eight games played.
