Kerri Hanks powered No. 1 Notre Dame to a pair of Big East wins over Seton Hall (5-0) and Rutgers (2-0).
The Irish sophomore scored three goals and added an assist in the win over Seton Hall and set up Brittany Bock and Amanda Cinalli for goals in the win over Rutgers, which went into the game unbeaten in Big East play.
Freshman sensation Michele Weissenhofer (9 goals, 13 assists), Hanks (11, 6), Cinalli (7, 3) and Bock (4, 4) form arguably the best attacking quartet in the women’s game this season.
