Keeper Luca Marinelli continues to impress as he has ascended to the starting spot after replacing injured starter Andrew Hamersley. He earned his third clean sheet, and second consecutive, on Saturday, and has allowed just 12 goals with 38 saves in his 12 starts in league play. In 10 of his 12 league starts WSC has scored one or fewer goals, including 4 1-0 losses. He was named to USL League One Team of the Week for the first time for his work.
Kyle Evans continues to impress, and was named to the USL League One Team of the Week presented by SiteOne for the second consecutive week. One of only two players to start every match for WSC this season, the 20-year-old assisted on both of Westchester’s goals in its impressive showing on the road at Omaha, as Evans also won a tackle and had seven clearances. It was WSC’s first point on the road this season, and he followed it up with a goal and an assist in Westchester’s win against the Cosmos, then had two interceptions and an 85.7 passing percentage against AV ALTA FC.
Midfielder Conor McGlynn was named to the USL Bench this past week.
