NEW ORLEANS – James Madison redshirt junior Alexandra Blom was tabbed the Sun Belt Conference Defensive Player of the Week after posting a pair of shutouts, the league announced Tuesday afternoon.
The Dukes moved to 6-2-3, 2-0-1 SBC after a 1-0-1 week of conference action.
The goalkeeper made seven total saves in the week, first recording two in a 2-0 victory over Old Dominion before saving all five of Southern Miss' shots in a scoreless draw. She was one of two goalkeepers in the Sun Belt to record two shutouts in the week and the only one to make multiple saves in both shutouts.
The Degerfors, Sweden native ranks third in the country in save percentage (.923), seventh in goals against average (.375) and tied for ninth in shutouts (six). In addition to her national rankings, she leads the conference in goals against average and save percentage and is second in shutouts. She is the lone Sun Belt goalkeeper to have a save percentage over .800.
Blom and the Dukes continue play on Friday, Sept. 30 as they host App State for a 6 p.m. kickoff at Sentara Park.
