Maryland women’s soccer defender Kennedy Bell was named the Big Ten Freshman of the Week, it was announced Tuesday.
Bell earned the award after a week during which she played all 90 minutes in two games and came up with the game-winning assist against Towson. She was also part of a back line that kept clean sheets in both games.
The fullback came into the year as the No. 34 recruit in the country, part of a strong recruiting class by head coach Meghan Ryan Nemzer.
Bell and the Terps will take on George Mason on Thursday evening.
