INDIANAPOLIS – From Division II, ninth ranked Lake Erie senior midfielder Jonathon Carr was selected as the United Soccer Coaches College National Player of the Week on Tuesday.
Carr was selected as the Great Midwest Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Week on Monday after his performance in league play that included seven points in two games.
The undefeated Storm (10-0-0, 6-0-0) continue to lead the conference standings with 18 points for their six league victories.
Lake Erie’s defense has only allowed three goals all season – a save percentage of .917 credited to two-time defensive player of the week Tom John. That number ranks third nationally in Division II so far this season.
After a tie over the past week of competition from Wilmington (Del.) against Post, Lake Erie and Maryville are the only teams in Division II with a perfect 10-0-0 record.
Carr, a senior captain from England, contributed seven points to the team with three goals and one assist over two games as the Storm remain undefeated on the season.
With LEC developing a reputation for its defensive prowess, the Storm opened things up offensively against Malone.
Carr also provided both game-winning goals for the Storm as they defeated conference opponents Malone and Walsh, which came into Sunday’s meeting with a 6-1-1 record.
Carr has helped the Storm’s offense this season as the team has 22 assists on 23 goals scored while also having 63 shots on target. He ranks tied for second in the league with six goals and is also tied for second in assists with four.
