COLONIA, N.J. – On Monday, the East Coast Conference announced its fifth Women's Soccer Weekly Report of the 2026 season, with three Queens College Knights earning weekly recognition for their performances during the week of Sept. 21–28.
 
Senior Samantha Hines-Hirsch earned her fifth consecutive weekly award of the season and second Goalkeeper of the Week honor. Hines-Hirsch recorded her ECC-leading sixth shutout of the season as No. 9 Queens defeated RV/No. 4 Saint Anselm Wednesday evening. She made six saves in the Knights' 1-0 non-conference victory over the Hawks.
 
Junior Keeley Harden was named Defensive Player of the Week for the first time in her career. Harden helped No. 9 Queens secure a 1-0 shutout victory over RV/No. 4 Saint Anselm Wednesday evening. Harden and the Knights' backline helped Queens record its sixth shutout of the season, limiting the Hawks to six shots overall, including just one in the first half.
 
Senior Ashley Kieblesz earned her fourth weekly honor of the season and third Honor Roll selection. Kieblesz recorded her team-leading eighth goal of the season and extended her team-best point total to 16 as No. 9 Queens defeated RV/No. 4 Saint Anselm Wednesday evening. She netted her third game-winning goal of the season in the 78th minute, firing a shot from the top of the 18-yard box past the out-of-position Hawks goalkeeper and into the empty net to give the Knights a 1-0 victory.
