Following a two-goal performance against George Mason, women's soccer first-year Sophia Michel has been named the GW Student-Athlete of the Week.
Michel single-handedly carried GW to a Senior Day win over the Patriots, recording goals in the 57th and 80th minutes to lead the Buff & Blue to a 2-0 victory. The win was GW's first conference victory of the season and the team's fourth win overall.
Michel has burst onto the scene as a rookie, recording seven goals, which places her third amongst all players in the Atlantic 10. She leads the GW offense with 14 points on the year and ranks first on the squad with 23 shots as well. Having played in just nine matches this season, Michel is second in the A10 in goals per match, averaging 0.7, and second in points average at 1.4 per match.
Michel becomes the second member of GW women's soccer to win the Student-Athlete of the Week award, joining Isabelle Ohlmann (Sept. 14).
The Revolutionaries return to action on Saturday, traveling to VCU for a 2:00 p.m. match on ESPN+.
