Following her first career "hat trick" with all three goals in the Cougars' 3-2 win at Sam Houston State on Sunday, Sept. 12, senior midfielder Nikki Hawkins was named Conference USA Offensive Player of the Week for the week of September 13, as selected by the C-USA head coaches.
Hawkins has scored all five goals for Houston during this season and has moved into first place in school history with 21 career goals. In addition, with 44 career points - seven on this season - she currently rests in second place on the all-time scoring chart.
