HANSEN HONORED BY SUMMIT LEAGUE
3/8/2021 11:26:00 AM | Women's Soccer
SIOUX FALLS – South Dakota State's Maya Hansen was named the Summit League's Offensive Player of the Week, the league office announced Monday.
Â
Hansen helped the Jackrabbits to a perfect 2-0 record in its home opening series against Kansas City, thanks to an eight-point showing on the weekend. On Friday, Hansen recorded the 10th hat trick in program history. She became the first to score three or more goals in a game for State since Leah Manuleleua did it in 2018.
Â
Hansen scored the eventual game-winner and game's first goal in the sixth minute off a corner kick from Hewitt, who sent a ball from the far corner into the middle of the box. The cross found the head of Reagan Anderson, who sent a header assist to Hansen who found the back of the net. Hansen's second goal came soon after, as the sophomore forward outmaneuvered a defender and the keeper after retrieving a long thru ball from Hewitt and fired it into the open net. In the 85th minute, Hansen fired a shot that deflected off the goalkeeper. She tracked it down and fired again to complete the hat trick.
Â
The sophomore finished off the 2-0 win over the Roos on Sunday as she fought off two Kansas City defenders and the goalkeeper to net her fourth goal of the weekend in the 65th minute.
Â
The Savage, Minnesota native led the Jacks in each of the contests with six and three shots, respectively.
Â
South Dakota State continues its homestand Friday, March 12 at 3 p.m. and Sunday, March 14 at noon as its hosts Denver.
