Hope Hanley scored five goals and added 10 assists in Yale's unpredecented doubleheader sweep of Sacred Heart and Stanford on Saturday, earning her Epoch/US Lacrosse Player of the Week honors.

In the second game of the doubleheader, a 15-12 win over Stanford, Hanley tallied a hat trick and dished off eight assists — tied for the most in a game in program history. The 11-point game was also tied for a program record, and it was the most scored in 37 years.

And it's nothing new for Hanley. She tallied 10 points (four goals, six assists) in a win over Quinnipiac earlier this season.
