SAN MATEO, Calif. – For the third time this season, the Portland Pilots have swept the WCC Player of the Week awards, with winger Gurman Sangha winning offensive player of the week and goalkeeper George Tasouris winning defensive player of the week. The Pilots are the first WCC team ever to have swept the player of the week awards three times since the conference switched the new format two seasons ago.
Sangha won the award after scoring the game-winning goal in the 66th minute against the San Francisco Dons. Sangha's goal was his third of the year, putting him at 11 points with three goals and five assists.
