Claire Zimmeck Chosen as National Player of the Week by Soccer Times

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - After scoring seven goals a week ago, sophomore forward Claire Zimmeck has been selected as the Soccer Times Player of the Week, marking the fourth time in recent days that she has been recognized nationally. Previously, Soccer America named her its Player of the Week, while Top Drawer Soccer chose her as its Co-Player of the Week. Additionally, Soccer Buzz tabbed her to its Elite Team of the Week.

In addition to the national awards, the Colonial Athletic Association selected the Fairfax, Va., native as its Player of the Week. It is the second time this season the CAA has honored Zimmeck, as it named her its Co-Player of the Week on Sept. 5.

While leading 16th-ranked W&M (13-1-2, 7-0-1) to a 3-0 mark last week, Zimmeck tallied game-winners in all three contests. On the season, she is tied for the conference lead in goals (11), game-winners (five) and points (25). Additionally, her 0.79 goals per match average ranks 16th in the nation.

Zimmeck began the week by earning a hat trick in the 3-1 triumph against James Madison. It was the second career three-goal match for Zimmeck, as she also accomplished the feat against Clemson last season. Against the Dukes, she fired a match-high five shots, all of which were on goal.

Versus Towson, Zimmeck notched both of the College’s scores, as the Green and Gold picked up a 2-0 victory.

On Sunday, Zimmeck scored a pair of goals in the Tribe’s 3-2 win at George Mason. Additionally, she totaled a match-high six shots, four of which were on goal.

Zimmeck is the second Tribe player to garner national accolades this season, as junior midfielder Donna Mataya was selected to the Soccer Buzz Elite Team of the Week on Sept. 27.

The College is unbeaten in its last 12 matches and is currently in first place in the conference standings.

The Tribe will be in action again today with a road match against Georgia State. W&M will then return home for a contest against UNC Wilmington on Sunday at 12:30 p.m.
