For the second time in as many weeks, Linfield women's soccer senior midfielder
Lize Rendon earned the Northwest Conference's offensive player of the week honors, as announced by the conference office on Monday.
Successfully defending her honors from the week prior, where she scored twice and added an assist, Rendon added two more goals to her season total. Thanks to two scores in 36-minutes played in a 3-1 win over Pacific on Friday, the midfielder worked her way into a starting role on the roster. She leads the undefeated Wildcats in scoring through six games, and also sits in second amongst NWC scorers early in the season. The Portland, Oregon, native is second in goals (4) and points (9), trailing one athlete from Whitman by one in each category.
Rendon is also a perfect 1.000 in shot on goal percentage, as her four shots on the season have all resulted in scores for the Wildcats. The team will enjoy a pair of weeks off from play, before hitting the pitch in just under two weeks when the team hosts Whitman and Whitworh on Saturday the 27th and Sunday the 28th of September. This stretch will be the start of eight conference games over 19 days for the Wildcats.
