Robert Morris University Athletics

Tabbed the latest Higher Images RMU Female Student-Athlete of the Week is Chloe McIlwaine of the field hockey squad. The freshman forward helped the Colonials stretch their winning streak to four last week in a 1-0 victory over Missouri State (9/14) in a neutral site tilt in Bloomington, Ind., scoring the lone goal of the contest at the 53:30 mark to help propel Robert Morris to the victory. McIlwaine also scored the only goal for the Colonials in a 4-1 setback to Indiana (9/15) that snapped RMU’s winning streak. Despite the loss to the Hoosiers, Robert Morris is off to its best start in school history at 4-2 entering its final two games away from home to start the 2013 season this weekend. On the 2013 campaign, McIlwaine is tied for the team lead in goals (3) while ranking second in points (6). She is a native of Belfast, Ireland, and thanks to her performance last week was tabbed the latest Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) Rookie of the Week (9/16).
