Moraga, Calif. – The winner of the Bay Alarm Student-Athlete of the Week Award for the week of August 21 is Tessa Salvestrin of Women's Soccer. The freshman from St. Helena, California opened her Gaels account in last week's opener against Cal Poly where she scored a goal and assisted another.
Salvestrin was a force to be reckoned with all game, scoring her first career Gaels goal just 30 minutes into the first half. She received a pass from fellow freshman Savannah Schwarze, before wiggling her way into the box and nestling a shot off of the right post and in to make it 1-0 SMC.
