Field Hockey: Conestoga’s Kiley Allen is Main Line Girls Athlete of the Week

A sophomore midfielder/defender, Allen has quickly developed into a leader on and off the field for the Pioneers’ field hockey team. She received All-Main Line honors as a freshman, and is a strong defensive presence, initiating much of Conestoga’s offensive momentum at the same time. As of Oct. 19, she has tallied six goals and seven assists – impressive given her role as defensive cover player for the team.
