WAKEFIELD, Mass. - Freshman Sammy Davis and junior Victoria Hanson of the Boston University women's ice hockey team each earned a Hockey East weekly award, the conference announced on Monday.

Davis won the league's Rookie of the Week award while Hanson was hailed as the Defensive Player of the Week. Both players were instrumental in the Terriers' two victories this past weekend.

Hanson started the 2-1 win over UConn on Friday night and stopped 20 shots. She then came into Sunday's 4-2 win at Maine during the second period and shined. Hanson made 14 saves and kept Maine off the scoreboard to help BU erase a 2-0 deficit.

Playing in her first two collegiate games, Davis tallied three goals, including the game-winner on Sunday at Maine with 3:04 remaining in regulation. Davis opened the scoring for BU in both tilts, including a third-period marker to tie Friday's game at 1-1.

BU will return to action this weekend when the Terriers welcome Penn State to Walter Brown Arena for a two-game set that begins on Friday at 7 p.m.
