Davis earned the honor by making 23 saves with a .958 save percentage and a 1.00 goals-against-average to help Plattsburgh State (1-0-0, 1-0-0 NEWHL) to a 5-1 win over SUNY Cortland on Saturday, Nov. 6, at the Ronald B.

This is the first NEWHL Goalie of the Week honor of the season for Davis. It is the fifth such honor of her career.
