Soccer's Athletes of the Week
They shined brightly during the regular season finale
The PACWEST is pleased to announce the Week 7 soccer Athletes of the Week following the regular season finale.
Women’s Soccer Athlete of the Week
Alex Paul – Langara Falcons
In a bid to extend the Falcons season, Alex Paul left it all on the pitch for the Falcons in the final week of regular season play. On Saturday, she was brilliant against the Mariners, recording her second hat trick of the season. All of Alex’s tallies came in a versatile fashion. The first goal came through a wonderful pass from teammate Amber Wells. Her second goal was just two minutes later, off a solo effort, after she created a turnover on the Mariners backline. Her final goal came from cleaning up a rebound after teammate Kayleigh Beaubien forced the Mariners keeper to make a great save. Alex continued to be a scoring threat and defensive backbone for the remainder of the weekend, helping the Falcons hold the Blues to only one goal.
Men’s Soccer Athlete of the Week
Dominik Hadjecki – Douglas Royals
First year standout Dominik Hadjecki turned in another fantastic weekend helping the Royals secure first place in the regular season standings and a bye into the PACWEST gold medal game next week. Hadjecki has been a handful for defenders in his rookie season, causing havoc in the backlines. He scored three goals over the weekend and capped the regular season with a league leading 10 goals.
