Men’s Soccer Athlete of the Week
Kia Ahmadpour – Capilano Blues

The first-year Blues goalkeeper was crucial for his side in a pair of weekend draws at VIU. Kia Ahmadpour was the busier of the two keepers in both games against the Mariners and was credited with 15 saves, including nine in Sunday’s match. The Blues conceded a goal in the first minute on Sunday, but Ahmadpour closed the door after that, allowing his team to eventually tie the game. Making his debut in Blues colours, Ahmadpour played all 180 minutes to open the PACWEST schedule.
