WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - William

in the Green and Gold's 3-0 victory over Old Dominion on Wednesday night. The honor is the first of Rutter's career.
In the match against the Monarchs, Rutter put the College in
front 2-0 in 63rd minute, after she blasted home senior Cortlyn Bristol's
assist. In the 74th minute, Rutter put
the contest out of reach when she shelved her second goal of the night on a
through ball courtesy of senior Mallory Schaffer. For the year, Rutter has tallied 10 points on
four goals and two assists.
