Senior Megan Romer has been named the WHAC's offensive player of the week.  Romer scored the game tying goal in the Cardinals' 1-1 draw against Cornerstone.  She topped that performance on Saturday with two goals and an assist in Concordia's win against Davenport.  It was fitting that Romer came up big on senior day as she was honored with five other Cardinal seniors.  The three goal week moved Romer into a tie for second all time on Concordia's goal scoring list.  Since returning to the lineup from injury Romer has given a charge to the Cardinal offense and her seven points last week lead the young offensive to a draw and a win over their two conference foes from Grand Rapids.  The honor is the second career POW award for Romer who also earned the honor in August of 2005.

Junior goalkeeper Kelly Wurzell was also honored by the WHAC by being named the defensive player of the week.  Wurzell made twelve saves against Cornerstone several of which were of the remarkable fashion and kept the game deadlocked in the game's closing minutes.  Wurzell then made seven saves in the shut out of Davenport on Saturday.  In 200 minutes of play for the week Wurzell allowed only one goal.  Wurzell also received the honor from the WHAC on September 24. 

The Cardinal women's soccer team has completed their home schedule but they will be back in action Wednesday October 17 when they play a road match at conference leader Aquinas College.  When the Cardinals and Saints hooked up earlier this season in Ann Arbor the Saints pulled out a 1-0 overtime victory.  The Cardinals have been competitive with every team in conference this year and they will go to Aquinas riding a wave of positive momentum.  The game is scheduled for a 4 pm start.
