Against No. 21 nationally ranked Roberts Wesleyan and a conference win against Findlay, Hamilton was on a destructive path once again as an offensive force.
 
Combined, the senior accounted for 12 goals, 3 assists, 12 ground balls, 20 draw controls and 8 caused turnovers, while making an impact on both sides of the field.
 
Hamilton scored six of her team's 13 goals against RWC and finished with eight points following a pair of assists. All six of her shots were on goal and she won 11 draw controls while collecting six ground balls.
 
The win for Findlay was a decisive one especially considering how close the series has been between the two programs in recent history. Hamilton scored six more goals, added one assist and fired off 10 shots in this one.
 
Hamilton is averaging 4.11 goals per game, 7.33 shots per game and 5.67 points per game, all of those being league-leading totals. This marks her third offensive weekly honor for the current spring season.

The Dragons have had two different first-year keepers receive back-to-back defensive honors, this time being Gold following after Jenay Rennie.
 
Gold played the entire 60 minutes in the win against Findlay and was credited with 11 saves and was the keeper of record.
 
She faced a total of 23 shots while the Tiffin offense unleashed 35 and scored 18 goals.
 
Gold has appeared in six games this season and has made 5.33 saves per contest.
