CLEVELAND – Two student-athletes on the Kent State soccer team have earned Mid-American Conference Player of the Week honors, the league office announced Tuesday.
Alisa Arthur earned Offensive Player of the Week honors after a two-goal performance to open the conference schedule and Kelsey Salopek was named the Defensive Player of the Week following her stellar start to MAC play.
Arthur netted the Golden Flashes' first goal of conference play on the season against Ohio on Thursday, scoring the game-winner in just the 10th minute of action. She scored again in the Wagon Wheel rivalry game against Akron, juking out the Zips keeper to net the equalizer in the 82nd minute.
