Rachael LaFin Named Forester Athlete of the Week
Junior Goalkeeper stops 12 of 13 shots on goal in 2-1 victory

LAKE FOREST, IL - The Lake Forest women's soccer team got their first real test of the season on Wednesday (September 19th) and, thanks to junior goalkeeper Rachael LaFin (Glen Ellyn, IL/Glenbard West), they passed that exam. LaFin was named Forester Athlete of the Week for her contributions to the team's 2-1 victory at Carroll College.

After facing just six shots on goal in Lake Forest's first three games, LaFin took on 13 in the game against Carroll and stopped all but one. For the season, LaFin has 17 saves and has allowed just two goals in three-and-a-half games, giving her a goals-against-average of 0.57 and a .895 save percentage.

The Forester Athlete of the Week is chosen by the Athletic Department on Thursdays.
