PROVIDENCE, R.I. (October 27, 2025) – Following a 2-0 week for UMass Boston women's soccer, first-year goalkeeper Janiya Matier (North Easton, Mass.) and sophomore forward Sofia Schallmo (Norwood, Mass.) each earned their second Little East Conference weekly honors of the season for their standout performances on the field and between the posts.

Schallmo was named LEC Offensive Player of the Week after delivering another dominant week up front. She tallied her second hat trick of the season and fourth of her career in Wednesday's win over Southern Maine, before assisting on the opening goal in Saturday's Senior Day victory.
UMass Boston women's soccer returns to the field for their final Little East Conference regular-season matchup this Wednesday (Oct. 29) when they travel to face UMass Dartmouth in North Dartmouth, Mass.
