Colleges: Klotz, Eagle earn Big East honors

South Florida’s Chelsea Klotz and Boo Eagle were both been named to the Big East Honor Roll on Monday after helping the Bulls to two wins over the weekend, pushing the Bulls into second place in the Big East American division.

Klotz scored twice against Cincinnati on Sunday, including the game-winner in overtime, putting her tied for the team lead with seven goals.

Eagle, a freshman, played every minute of both wins against Louisville and Cincinnati, anchoring a Bulls defense that conceded only one goal over the pair of games.

South Florida is tied on points with first-placed Marquette in the American division, but the Golden Eagles hold the tiebreaker over the Bulls after their 2-1 win when the teams met earlier in the season.

The Bulls close the regular season with a final pair of road games this weekend, facing St. John’s on Friday afternoon at 4 p.m. and Syracuse on Sunday at noon.
