CO-OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Laurie Goddard, Hofstra
Senior | Midfield / Forward | London, England / Alleyns School
Goddard scored three goals in the Pride’s 2-0 week, contributing to a three-game win streak that stretched from Sept. 7. In a 1-0 win over Ivy League opponent Princeton, the Englishman had the lone penalty kick. Three days later, Goddard netted from the spot once again as a part of a brace that sealed a 3-0 win over crosstown rivals Stony Brook.
CO-OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Osei Gyamfi, UNCW
Sophomore | Midfielder | Kumasi, Ghana / Montverde Academy
Gyamfi was prolific in the Seahawks picking up their first win of the season with a 5-0 result over William & Mary. After charting an assist within the first seven minutes of the game, the Ghanaian midfielder tallied three points in less than three minutes of action with his second-half goal and assist to close out the victory. The contest was the first two-assist game of Gyamfi’s career.
DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Jourdan Schumacher, Charleston
Graduate Student | Goalkeeper | New Orleans, Louisiana / Lusher Charter School
Schumacher allowed zero goals in Charleston’s 1-0-1 week, contributing eight saves during the stretch. Starting the week off with a non-conference battle against USC Upstate, the graduate student had two saves in the 1-0 shutout win. Schumacher helped the Cougars pick up a point a few days later, tallying six saves for a clean sheet in a 0-0 draw against Campbell.
ROOKIE OF THE WEEK

Freshman | Midfielder | North Richland Hills, Texas / Birdville
Siikala and the Seahawks played one game this week, which saw the freshman score the first goal of his career. In the 36th minute against William & Mary, Siikala found the back of the net to give UNCW a 3-0 lead and push the game out of reach.
