LOS ANGELES - The Golden Coast Conference named senior Abbey Simshauser the conference Player of the Week for week one on Thursday. The senior attacker repeats as the week one GCC Player of the Week, having done so in 2024 as well. It is her third career GCC Player of the Week honor.
Simshauser led the team with 14 points in three games, scoring 10 goals and adding four assists. The senior Bulldog also had nine drawn exclusions, four steals and three field blocks in the season-opening Polopalooza tournament. She had four goals twice on the weekend, first in the season opening win over Michigan and again in the tournament finale against UC San Diego.
The Bulldogs return to action at the Cal Cup this weekend, facing three Top 10 teams and an exhibition against the USA Academy.
