Quincy University senior forward Jaclyn Mastroianni and University of Missouri-St. Louis junior back Brooke Barczewski have been named the Great Lakes Valley Conference women’s soccer Offensive and Defensive Players of the Week, respectively, it was announced by the league office Monday. 

Barczewski takes home her first weekly nod from the conference office after helping the Tritons to a pair of shutout victories last weekend against Saint Joseph’s and Indianapolis.  The St. Louis, Mo., native was credited for anchoring the center of UMSL’s back line in the two victories, although Barczewski also got in the mix offensively in the 1-0 victory over UIndy.  At the 74:55 mark, Barczewski assisted Hannah Kaloupek for the game-winner.  Barczewski is the first Triton to be recognized by the league since teammate Sidney Allen was tabbed as the season’s first Offensive Player of the Week on Sept. 9, 2013.  Prior to the 2013 season, the GLVC awarded only one honoree each week, regardless of position. Barczewski is the first UMSL defender to win the top weekly honor since goalie Courtney Carmody on Oct. 21, 2003.
