STEPHANIE BARRIENTOS OF TEXAS LUTHERAN UNIVERSITY, a sophomore goalkeeper from Mission, Texas, has been selected the SCAC Women’s Soccer Defensive Player of the Week for the week beginning September 5th.
Barrientos recorded the shutout against Southwestern in the Bulldogs' 2-0 conference win over the Pirates. She played all 90 minutes and made two saves.
Barrientos also played 45 minutes in a road loss to Concordia and did not give up a goal. She ended the week with four saves and a 0.00 goals against average.
Other outstanding performances in the SCAC:
Senior midfielder/defender Erin Eckart of Austin College helped the 'Roos last weekend, filling in at center back in a narrow loss to LeTourneau. Sophomore goalkeeper Olivia Severson of the University of Dallas picked up her second straight shutout and tied a personal-best in saves with seven during the Crusaders 0-0 tie at LeTourneau University. She then surpassed that mark with 10 in Sunday's match against East Texas Baptist University. Senior defender Jordan Bethea of Trinity University anchored a defense that allowed just one shot in the game, while also scoring the game-winning goal with an impressive long-distance shot in the 16th minute of action.
