Barney has established herself as one of the nation’s premier playmakers, ranking among NCAA DII’s best in the assists category.
Her strong week included two goals scored and three assists for a total of seven points as the Trojans enhanced their postseason hopes with wins against Davis & Elkins and Alderson Broaddus.
Barney ranks sixth in NCAA Division II in total assists with eight. She is tied for the league lead with Walsh’s Olivia Peters.
The senior pulled the Trojans even at 1-1 with a goal early in the second half against Davis & Elkins. It was her second goal of the season.
She padded a TNU lead to 3-1 with a goal in the 81st minute in the same game, her third score of the year. She also assisted a Courtney Dyer eventual game winner less than two minutes elapsed and fed Lauren Winters for a goal right before the end of regulation.
In a shutout against Alderson Broaddus, Barney also assisted Johnna Raby in the 80th minute to help add some insurance in TNU’s seventh win of the season.
