Ella Hayes named PBC Goalkeeper of the Week 

AUGUSTA, Ga. | Georgia College & State University women's soccer player Ella Hayes has been named the Goalkeeper of the Week by the Peach Belt Conference.

The sophomore from Watkinsville, Georgia, played 180 minutes between the pipes for the Bobcats, allowing just one goal on 15 shots as GCSU won two matches last week to improve to 5-3-3 overall and to 4-0-2 in the Peach Belt. Hayes earned her first shutout of the season and the fifth for the Bobcats in 2025 as she recorded six saves in a 1-0 victory over the University of South Carolina-Aiken.

The Bobcats will return to action Wednesday (Oct. 15) in Montgomery, Alabama, where they will face Auburn University at Montgomery in a 3 p.m. Central time contest.
