The Groveland, Mass. native posted 11 goals and one assist to lift Saint Anselm to a 2-0 week against conference opponents. In Wednesday night's 9-7 win over Bentley University, he posted a hat trick before recording eight goals and an assist in a 15-12 win at No. 18 Assumption University on Saturday.
Turpin currently ranks first in the NE10 in goals per game (4.14) and first in points per game (5.29) through seven contests.
The Hawks (7-0, 3-0 NE10) are ranked No. 2 in the United States Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association Poll and will face No. 20 Saint Michael's College at home on Wednesday, April 1 at 4 p.m.
