BOISE, Idaho - Carly Cross, a junior on the Boise State soccer team, has been named the Ford Boise State Student-Athlete of the Week for the week of Sept. 6-10.
The forward led the Broncos in their 4-3 win against Eastern Washington, Sept. 7, recording three goals. She knocked in a cross from Morgan Padour in the match's first five minutes and found the back of the net again off an assist from Kenzie MacMillan less than five minutes later.
Â
Eastern Washington opened the second period with a quick goal, but Cross responded moments later with a shot from deep range to give the Broncos a 4-2 lead.
Â
Cross was the first Bronco to record a hat trick since Raimee Sherle did it against New Mexico on Nov. 7, 2019, and is now sixth all-time in fastest to three goals in a single match by one player. The Anaheim, Calif., native is only the sixth Bronco to record a hat trick in her career.
Â
Following her performances over the weekend, Cross was named the Mountain West Offensive Player of the Week, the first in her Boise State career.
Â
The Blue and Orange will host Pac-12 opponent Oregon on Thursday, Sept. 14, at 5 p.m. at Boas Soccer Complex to close out nonconference play.
