LEWISBURG, Pa. – Bucknell's Will Hopkins was named the Patriot League Men's Lacrosse Rookie of the Week for a third time this season on Monday. Hopkins registered four points in Saturday's 18-12 win over Holy Cross.
Hopkins' four points matched his season high, and his three goals marked his third hat trick of the year. All three of the Severna Park, Md. native's goals were scored in succession within a two-minute span in the fourth quarter. He then handed out an assist on Bucknell's following goal. In addition to his four points, Hopkins picked up a season-high four ground balls in the road victory.
Hopkins is now tied for third on the roster with 25 points this season, racking up 15 goals and 10 points.
Bucknell has collected 11 of the last 23 Patriot League Rookie of the Week awards dating back to the start of the 2022 season. Senior Jack Feda was an honorable mention for Patriot League Offensive Player of the Week on Monday as well after posting six goals against the Crusaders.
Bucknell is back on the road Friday evening to face Lafayette in Easton, Pa.
