San Antonio - Trinity Tigers senior All-America midfielder Kelsey Falcone and junior midfielder Kimberly Polasek have been designated as the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Women's Soccer Offensive and Defensive Players of the Week, respectively.

Falcone and Polasek were major contributors to the third-ranked Tigers SCAC victories over Schreiner University and Texas Lutheran University.

The prolific Falcone tallied points on six of Trinity's 15 goals, which included three goals and three assists over the two games. Falcone scored the first goal of the second half against Schreiner, giving Trinity a 4-0 lead. Against Texas Lutheran, Falcone scored two goals and dished out three assists. She assisted her teammates on Trinity's first goals in both halves of the matchup.

This season, Falcone is second on the Tiger team with 11 goals, 10 assists and 32 points. She is tied for second place with two game-winning goals. Falcone is two assists shy of becoming the second Tiger player to record at least 40 goals and 40 assists in a career. Senior All-American teammate Emily Jorgens has posted 53 goals and 79 assists, becoming the first male or female player in the SCAC to accomplish the feat of at least 50 goals and 50 assists in a career.

Polasek and the taut Tiger defense allowed just one shot over the two games.  No shots were yielded in the shutout win over Schreiner. Polasek contributed to the offensive cause by scoring a goal in each half against Texas Lutheran, including the first, which occurred in the second minute of play.

For the season, Polasek has chalked up two goals and four assists, and has helped the Tigers to 10 shutouts over the 16 games.

Trinity (15-0-1, 9-0-0 SCAC), the winner of 14 consecutive games, will host two SCAC contests this weekend. Up first will be Austin College at 8:00 p.m. Friday, followed by a 2:00 p.m. Sunday game with the University of Dallas.
