COLLEGE PARK, Md. – Jared Bernhardt, Justin Shockey and Eric Malever were all named to the Big Ten Team of the Week today in a release made by the conference offices. Bernhardt was named the league's Offensive Player of the Week, Shockey was tabbed as the Specialist of the Week and Malever garnered Freshman of the Week honors.

Bernhardt earned his second nod as the B1G Offensive Player of the Week this season after scoring a career-high six goals while notching an assist in #3 Maryland's convincing 19-12 win over #4 Rutgers on March 13. Bernhardt also grabbed 3 ground balls and caused a turnover. The Longwood, Fla. native is just eight goals away from tying Maryland's all-time record for career goals (155).
