Avery Albers brings lots of composure and leadership every time she steps on the field. During Northwestern’s matchup with UNC at the Committed Games, Albers was the reason her team stayed in the game, turning away some of the top offensive recruits with save after save that few goalies would have made.

Albers tracks powerful outside shots extremely well and refuses to let low shots sneak past her. Several shocking off stick and hip saves completely shifted momentum and showcased just how smart she is in the cage. Her clearing ability is equally impressive, consistently delivering long, accurate outlets that immediately put her team in transition. Between her shot-stopping ability, leadership, and poise under pressure, Albers has everything needed to thrive at Northwestern.
