No. 19-ranked Oregon Tech’s Alyx Burkhartzmeyer was named the WVT Laboratory Women’s Soccer Defensive Player of the Week.
Burkhartzmeyer, a sophomore goalkeeper from West Linn, Ore., picked up two wins this week between the pipes leading the Owls with back-to-back shutouts – her 10 and 11th in a row dating back to last season. She made four saves to keep OIT’s opponents at bay, including two against NCAA Division II foe Humboldt State.
