West Alabama forward Clay Green was named the Gulf South Conference Men’s Soccer Player of the Week on Tuesday.
Green punched in both goals in a 2-0 win against Alabama-Huntsville on Sunday and followed up that performance by scoring a goal in the eighth minute against Shorter, an eventual 3-2 win for UWA. The Tigers have now strung off seven-straight wins to improve to 9-1 overall on the season.
Green was a two-time State of Alabama Most Valuable Player (2010-11) and was a three-time All-Metro and All-State performer, as well as an ESPN All-Star, while at John Carroll Catholic School (Ala.). He entered UWA as the fourth-ranked highest scorer in the nation among high school players.
