Abby Reed wasnt a part of DePauls freshman class when it assembled late in the summer of 2013. Today, its difficult to imagine DePauls senior class without her.And never more so than this past week. With Reed tormenting opposing defenses, DePaul perched itself atop the Big East with a 4-2 win at home against Creighton on Sept. 29 and a 4-1 win at Seton Hall on Oct. 2.But take away the goals in which Reed played a part, either by scoring them or setting them up, and the Blue Demons accumulated one fewer goal than the Bluejays and Pirates.It is an alternate history DePaul might not wish to consider. Instead, in our reality, Reeds three goals and three assists make her espnWs national soccer player of the week.It is fitting that DePaul is in the midst of what could be such a strong closing kick to Reeds final regular season -- unbeaten in the Big East and winners of five in a row overall after a 1-4-2 start. Because Reed, too, got a late start on Big East success. A Chicago-area product, she played her freshman season at Indiana State in the Missouri Valley Conference (setting that programs single-season scoring record with 10 goals) before she joined DePaul as a transfer.Reed scored 12 goals in her first season at DePaul. Her 25 goals in a little more than two and a half seasons are already good enough for third among the programs all-time leaders (15 career assists place her tied for fifth in that category).To be fair, it has been far from a one-woman band. In her first two seasons, Reed played alongside Elise Wyatt, the programs all-time leading goal scorer. And she still plays alongside junior Alexa Ben, whose return to health and form seems far from coincidental in the recent winning streak.dddddddddddd. All the same, Reed has either scored or assisted on 35 percent of the total goals scored by the Blue Demons since she arrived -- a greater percentage than even highly successful peers like Wisconsins Rose Lavelle and Virginia Techs Murielle Tiernan in the same span.She just has a knack for being around when the ball goes in the back of the net, by deft skill when possible, or bullish persistence when not. Take the game against Seton Hall. After contributing a goal and two assists in the win over Creighton, Reed wasted no time getting the road trip off to a comfortable start. Running onto what looked like nothing more than a hopeful long cross into the box, she headed the ball off the crossbar. When neither the goalkeeper nor the trailing defender reacted quickly, she seized the opportunity to head the rebound into the goal.Just before the half came to a close, Reed showed off her playmaking skills when she gathered the ball at midfield and slotted a perfectly angled pass that put Taylor Schissler in alone on goal.Reeds second goal then put the game well and truly out of reach. No bruiser at 5-foot-4, she held her ground in the box and gathered a pass that was behind her, shrugged off a defender who collided with her and poked the ball past the goalkeeper from short range.The week wouldnt have been the same without her. Just like these past three seasons. ' ' '
