Jessica Estep	Jenessa Loewen

Estep, a senior forward from Mansfield, Ohio, tallied two goals and two assists during the Lady Cougars' 2-1 week. The former Madison High School star assisted on the lone goal in a 1-0 win at NCAA Division II Urbana University to begin the week. Then, she scored the first two goals in a 5-0 victory over Cincinnati Christian University in the first match of the Lady Cougar Classic. She closed out the week by assisting on MVNU's lone goal in a 2-1 setback to NAIA No. 24 John Brown (Ark.) University. For her efforts, she was named the Most Valuable Offensive Player of the tournament.

Estep leads the Lady Cougars with two goals and two assists through four matches this year. She now ranks fourth in career goals (54) and career points (123) and is tied for ninth in career assists (15).

Loewen, a senior goalkeeper from Gravenhurst, Ontario, posted a pair of shutouts during the week as she played all 270 minutes in goal for MVNU. The former Gravenhurst High School standout stopped 11 shots in the one-goal win at Urbana and made the only save necessary in the victory over Cincinnati Christian. She had four saves in the loss to John Brown, and she was named to the Lady Cougar Classic All-Tournament Team.

On the season, Loewen has posted three shutouts in four matches with a 0.50 goals against average and 20 saves. For her career, she now ranks second in school history with 26 shutouts – just five shy of the mark of 31 set by former MVNU standout Krysti Wilson from 2003-2006.

The Lady Cougars (3-1, 1-0 AMC) will return to action on Saturday at 1 p.m. when MVNU will host Notre Dame College in an AMC match at Cougar Field.
