In two matches, Barnes only allowed one goal while helping the Violets (6-0-1) continue their best season start ever. She made eight saves in a 2-1 victory over Vassar College. The senior co-captain then recorded her career-high tying fourth shutout of the season while making a personal-best 13 saves against Allegheny College.
For the season, Barnes is 6-0-1 with a 0.31 goals against average.
NYU is receiving 20 votes in the latest d3kicks.com poll, good for a #35 ranking nationally.
