Maryland's Ashleigh Jobson & Bucknell's Aubrey Rowe Named February 23 Southern Division Co-Players of the Week

BRIDGEPORT, Pa. -- University of Maryland goalie Ashleigh Jobson (Sr., Annapolis, Md./Severn School) and Bucknell University driver Aubrey Rowe (Sr., Carlisle, Pa./Cumberland Valley) combined for 32 saves, 11 goals, 11 assists, 13 steals and eight ejections drawn to share the February 23 Southern Division Player of the Week and lead the Terrapins and Bison to 3-1 records at the Princeton Invitational.

For Maryland, Jobson led the Terrapins to two of the program's three wins posting seven blocks in a 14-10 win over No. 20 Brown University and stopping 14 shots in a 10-7 victory against Wagner College.  Called "the team's most consistent player," by head coach Carl Salyer, she blocked away 11 shots in a 7-6 loss to Marist College.

She did not play in an 11-1 win by Maryland over Villanova University as freshman goalie Shelby Reyes (Fr., Miami, Fla./Gulliver Prep) made eight saves in the win.

The February 9 Southern Division Player of the Week, Rowe picks up her second Player of the Week nod in three weeks as she tallied 11 goals, 11 assists, 13 steals and eight ejections drawn as the Bison knocked off Harvard University (14-13 W), Marist (13-10 W), Wagner (9-8 W OT) and fell to No. 20 Brown (10-9 L).

Agianst Brown, she posted three goals with two assists and a career high five steals, before recording three goals, four assists and two steals versus Marist.  Following a one goal, three assist, two steal and three ejection performance against Wagner, she posted her best game of the weekend with four goals, two assists, four steals and four ejections drawn in the Bison win over Harvard.

The team leader in assists (20) and points (39) this season, Rowe now has 269 career points and 166 goals, placing her third in both categories in program history. She also went over the 100-assist mark for her career on Sunday raising her career total to 103.

On of three Bison to start all 11 games this season, she is second in Bucknell history with 198 steals, one shy of tying Meg Blitzer's program record.
