Midfielder Megan Gilbert (Lansing, Mich. / Holt) assisted the Knights to a 16-12 victory at Albion and a 15-5 win at Adrian. Normally making waves on the offensive side of the ball, Gilbert found a way to be a disruptor without the ball this week. She still averaged 4.5 points/game this week, but made her mark with scrappy play and persistence. Gilbert recorded seven caused turnovers, scooped up nine ground balls, and secured 32 draw controls over the last two games. She concluded conference play as the MIAA's leader with 41 points, 34 goals, 58 shots, 45 shots on goal, and 65 draw controls.
