Senior Danielle Figueroa (Bridgeport, Conn.) was also recognized as she was named to the GNAC Weekly Honor Roll.

Dineson recorded one shutout in the Falcons' 4-0 win over Norwich University on Saturday, Sept. 29 as she made six stops to keep the Cadets off the scoreboard.

In the Falcons' 2-0 loss to Simmons College, Dineson recorded 10 saves in 90 minutes of play and posted an .889 save percentage on the week.

On Saturday afternoon, Figueroa became the Falcons' all-time leader in assists as she led her team to the shutout win over Norwich.

With her assist, Figueroa surpassed former record holder Sam Gigliotti (2007-10) as she now has 14 career assists.
