KANSAS – Friends University junior midfielder Jose Quiel has been voted as the KCAC Men's Soccer Offensive Player of the Week, the conference office announced today (Oct. 26). All KCAC Player of the Week awards are sponsored by Athletic Solutions.
This is the second career weekly honor for Quiel, who won games this past week for the Falcons with his scoring and passing, starting with scoring the first two goals in a 3-0 win at Evangel University on Wednesday (Oct. 21).
The San Jose, Costa Rica native then scored the first goal at Tabor on Saturday (Oct. 24) before assisting on the game-winning goal by Andrea Michael Xibilia for the Falcons' fifth straight victory.
Quiel now has double-digit goals (10) this season along with four assists for Friends.
The Falcons are now 10-1 in the KCAC and are tied for first with No. 12-ranked Ottawa University, who they will host in a showdown that will go a long way toward determining the conference champion Wednesday night (Oct. 28) at 7:30 pm at Adair-Austin Stadium.
