Senior Allison Leone and sophomore Christina Bragado were named Monday as the Conference USA Goalkeeper and Defensive Player of the Week.

Leone’s honor is the third of her career, having previously been named the C-USA Goalkeeper of the Week in back-to-back weeks last season on Oct. 3 and Oct. 10. The honor also gives Leone the most weekly awards among WKU goalkeepers in program history and matches Amanda Buechel’s mark for the most among all individual players.

For Bragado, the weekly award is the first of her career at WKU and marks the fourth C-USA Defensive Player of the Week award received by a WKU player since the beginning of the 2016 season.
