Notre Dame, Ind. —- Senior attack Tom Glatzel (Baltimore, Md.) has been named the Great Western Lacrosse League (GWLL) Player of the Week after scoring four goals and dishing off two assists in 11th-ranked Notre Dame’s season-opening 10-8 win on the road at 18th-ranked Penn State.

Glatzel, an honorable mention United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association All-American last season after leading the Irish in scoring with 38 goals and 18 assists (56 points), tallied all four of his scores in the second half in the come-from-behind victory.

Glatzel was named the league’s player-of-the-week once last season and also earned national player-of-the week honors after netting four goals and dishing off three assists in Notre Dame’s 15-13 upset of Loyola in the first round of the 200 NCAA tournament.
