TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Indiana State women's soccer's
Maddie Alexander was named this week's GoGo Squeez ISU Student-Athlete of the Week as announced by the athletic department on Monday afternoon.
Alexander had an outstanding week in net for the Sycamores and Indiana State posted a 1-0-1 record in Missouri Valley play over this past week's home stand. Over the two games, she recorded an impressive 21 saves on her way to posting a pair of shutouts against both Drake and Northern Iowa.
On Thursday night, Alexander was active inside the box as the redshirt senior goalkeeper posted a season-high 16 saves in Indiana State's 2-0 win over the Bulldogs. The Sycamores were out-shot 24-6 in the contest, but Alexander was the difference-maker in the contest turning aside eight shots in each half in tying the fourth-most single game saves in program history.
She was back at it again this past Sunday against Northern Iowa as the Battle Creek, Mich. native added five more saves to her totals in a 0-0 draw against the visiting Panthers.
Alexander currently leads the Missouri Valley Conference in saves (87), save percentage (.926), and goals against average (0.519). She's currently the NCAA Division I leader in save percentage, while sitting fourth in total saves and ninth in saves per game over the course of the 2024 season.
The GoGo Squeez ISU Student-Athlete of the Week will be announced every Monday afternoon throughout the 2024-25 athletic season.
