Seamon led the offensive charge in Villanova’s 4-1 win over Seton Hall on Sept. 27. The senior midfi elder played a hand in all four goals, scoring a pair of tallies and adding two assists. Seamon put the Wildcats on the board just 12:01 into the game and capped off the nights scoring 14:57 into

the second half.

Watson-Siriboe helped Connecticut grab its fourth and fi fth shutouts of the season, both defensively and offensively. On the weekend, Watson-Siriboe and the Huskies held its opposition to just six shots on goal. The senior defender scored the lone goal in UConn’s win over then-No. 18/22 St.
