LOGAN, Utah – After helping the No. 7 Utah State soccer team remain undefeated with a 1-0-1 week which included a 0-0 draw against Washington State and a 3-1 win at Grand Canyon, graduate goalkeeper Cora Brendle was named the Mountain West Defensive Player of the Week.
 
Brendle, a native of Boiling Springs, South Carolina, played all 180 minutes in goal for the Aggies last week and allowed just a single goal. She posted a shutout against Washington State as she recorded a season-best four saves in the match to blank the Cougars. Then, against Grand Canyon, she recorded three saves including two during the final 35 minutes while the Aggies were down to just 10 players. 
 
This is the first MW weekly honor of Brendle's career.
 
Brendle and the Aggies (9-0-1, 0-0-0 MW) begin Mountain West play this week with a pair of road matches, first facing San José State on Thursday, Sept. 26, at 7:30 p.m. (MT), then playing at Fresno State on Sunday, Sept. 29, at 1 p.m. (MT).
