Concordia’s Jenna Peterson, a senior from Federal Way, Wash., has been named the Red Lion Women’s Soccer Defensive Player of the Week for the period ending Aug. 26.

The only field player to play all 180 minutes over the weekend, Peterson returned to competition after sitting out all of 2011 with an injury, and led No. 2 Concordia to a pair of wins at the Southern Oregon Tournament.

Peterson helped the Concordia defense allow just 11 shots and one goal in the two competitions.
