EASTON, Mass. (November 9, 2026) – Senior Kayla Cassidy of the Stonehill College women's soccer team has been named the NEC Player of the Week, as announced by the league office Monday afternoon.

Cassidy earns her first major weekly award of the season and collects her fourth NEC Prime Performer recognition of the campaign. The honor comes following a standout performance in Stonehill's 5-0 regular-season finale victory over LIU, where Cassidy recorded a brace to help lead the Skyhawks to the win.
