Alex Carey

Sport:  Lacrosse

College:  Erie Community College

With the score tied at 8-8 late in the contest, Carey thwarted Herkimer’s best scoring chance – a breakaway with her 9th save of the day, before transitioning play that resulted in the game-winning goal with just 27 seconds left in regulation. It was Carey’s second win in as many contests and left her undefeated in Region III competition.
