Klauber leads hockey to wins

After helping lead the MIT field hockey team to a pair of convincing wins to open the season, Kameron L. Klauber ’12 was named NEWMAC Offensive Player of the Week on Monday. Klauber scored 11 points in two games, making four goals and assisting on three more.

In the season opener against New England College, Klauber found the back of the net twice and assisted on another score to help Tech record an 8-1 win over the Pilgrims. On Saturday, at UMass-Dartmouth, Klauber set up the first two goals of the game and scored a pair of goals herself later on in the 6-2 victory.

It is the second conference weekly honor for Klauber, who was also named Player of the Week during her sophomore campaign.
