Gannon, the Wolverines' senior co-captain, scored two goals in a 4-0 victory at Iowa (Sept. 29) and had a goal and two assists in a 4-1 defeat of Southwest Missouri State (Sept. 30). Gannon is currently the leading scorer in the Big Ten with 31 points and is seventh in the nation. The 10 points she collected this past weekend pushed her career total to 112, surpassing Julie Flachs (1994-97) for second place on U-M's all-time chart.
Foreman leads a Wolverine defense that has only allowed 1.07 goals per game this season. The Aussie defender made a defensive save against Southwest Missouri State and assisted on two goals against Iowa. Foreman has eight assists on the season. She tied the Wolverine single-season assist record last year with 22.
The Maize and Blue stickers will be back in action this weekend at Ocker Field contests against Northwestern on Friday (Oct. 6) at 4 p.m. and Central Michigan (Oct. 7) on Saturday at 1 p.m.
