JENNIFER WHITE OF TRINITY UNIVERSITY, a first-year defender from Albuquerque, N.M., has been named the SCAC Women's Soccer Defensive Player-of-the-Week for matches played from Monday, October 4 through Sunday, October 10.

White led the Tiger women’s soccer team to three shutout victories over the past week, holding opponents to just four total shots in those three wins.

White and the Tiger defense posted 6-0 shutouts over Mary Hardin-Baylor and Dallas, then out-fought Austin College in a 2-0 win to finish the week Sunday afternoon.  After a scoreless first half, the Trinity defense did not allow a shot in the final 45 minutes, paving the way for the offense to grab the victory.

Led by White, Trinity’s defense has recorded four consecutive shutouts and nine straight wins.  The team has seven shutouts overall this season, and has allowed just one goal in the past seven games.
