BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - Lee women's soccer defender McKenzie Bricker has been named the Gulf South Conference Defender of the Week the league office announced on Tuesday.

The seniro was a key component in helping the Lady Flames keep two clean sheets this weekend. The Collierville, Tenn. native helped limit West Georgia to just nine shots in a 1-0 win on Friday and kept the high-powered No. 8 North Alabama Lions off the scoreboard for the first time all season on Sunday.

"It's another good honor for Summer and McKenzie to be recognized as players of the week, but collectively it shows how hard the team worked over the weekend to get two good results," said head coach Chris Hennessey.

Bricker and the Lady Flames will return home this weekend to face two more top clubs in the league as they welcome Valdosta State to town on Friday at 7 p.m. before entertaining West Florida on Sunday at 2 p.m.
