KUTZTOWN, Pa. – Sarah Gatehouse (Sinking Spring, Pa./Wilson) led top-ranked Kutztown field hockey to an unbeaten week, which included two shutout victories against then-No. 1 East Stroudsburg and Slippery Rock. For her efforts, Gatehouse was voted this week's Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Defensive Athlete of the Week, announced by the league office Tuesday.
 
Gatehouse has been a rock for the KU defense all season, and that continued last week. She helped lead Kutztown to two shutout wins, including a 1-0 victory over No. 1 East Stroudsburg and 3-0 win at Slippery Rock to close out the season. KU has allowed just one goal in the last seven games. KU's 10 shutouts and .78 goals allowed per game this season rank second in the NCAA.
 
Gatehouse ranks second in the PSAC with 10 assists.
 
Kutztown's next game is a PSAC semifinal on Friday, Nov. 18, against a team to be determined, most likely at 5:30 p.m.
