GREENSBORO, N.C.

Hayden shares the offensive honor with Duke's Rose Tynan. Syracuse's Roos Weers earned the defensive honor.
Hayden had the game-winning goal in both UNC victories last weekend weekend. Against No. No. 16 Wake Forest on Saturday, she scored in the 18th minute to put the top-ranked Tar Heels up for good in a 5-1 win. At No. 19 Liberty on Sunday, Hayden tallied two more goals, netting the first and fifth goals in a 7-1 win.
She leads the ACC in gamewinners with six this fall. Hayden leads the team and is tied for first in the conference with 12 goals.
