The USA Lacrosse Players of the Week recognize the most outstanding individual performances in high school girls’ lacrosse in each of the five regions — Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, South, Midwest and West — outlined in our high school coverage. The South Region has completed its season.
NORTHEAST
Maddigan Miller, Bayport-Blue Point (N.Y.)
Bayport-Blue Point is one of six remaining undefeated teams on Long Island, and Maddigan Miller is a big reason why. The two-way senior midfielder, a Stanford commit, has led the charge with 19 goals and 10 assists.
Miller had five goals in a 3-0 week, which saw Bayport-Blue Point defeat Mount Sinai, Westhampton and Kings Park. Her biggest scoring output came in the closest game — three goals in an 8-6 win over Westhampton.
Also notable: Abbey LoCascio, St. Anthony’s (N.Y.); Caroline Colton, Somers (Conn.); Maddigan Leifer, St. Joseph (Conn.); Holis Mulry, New Canaan (Conn.); Emma LoPinto, Manhasset (N.Y.); Sydney Rathjen, South Side (N.Y.)

MID-ATLANTIC
Grace Muldoon, Stone Ridge (Md.)
Three competitive games gave Muldoon a chance to stand out, and the Richmond commit did exactly that with 21 combined points. The senior midfielder had nine points as Stone Ridge handed Good Counsel its first loss of the year on May 18 by a 20-10 score.
Muldoon then recorded a hat trick and added one assist, as Stone Ridge dealt Georgetown Visitation its first loss (15-11) on Friday. Muldoon followed it up with a five-goal, three-assist performance in a 13-9 win over Visi on Saturday to sweep the series. Between the two Visi games, she came up with eight ground balls.
Also notable: McKenzie Blake, Haddonfield (N.J.); Cate Bradley, St. Stephen’s & St. Agnes (Va.); Haley Riabov, Chatham (N.J.); Madeline Sepe, Oak Knoll (N.J.); Carly Wilson, Agnes Irwin (Pa.)
