written by Dave Parsons, Sports Information Director

MOUNT VERNON, Ohio (10-31-2008) - Jessica Estep, a member of the Mount Vernon Nazarene University women’s soccer team, has been selected as the American Mideast Conference Offensive Player of the Week for her performance during the week of October 20-26.

Estep, a sophomore forward from Mansfield, Ohio, led the Lady Cougars to a pair of AMC victories during the week. The former Madison High School standout scored one goal in a 2-0 victory at Ursuline College. She added two goals and an assist in a 4-2 win over Daemen (N.Y.) College.

On the season, Estep leads MVNU with 16 goals in 17 matches. She is also second on the team with six assists. In less than two full seasons, Estep already ranks fifth in school history with 38 career goals and fifth with 85 career points. She has also dished out nine career assists.

The Lady Cougars are currently 10-6-1 overall and 8-3-1 in the AMC. MVNU will close out the regular season at home on Saturday when the team will host Walsh University in an AMC match at 1:00 p.m. The Lady Cougars have already clinched a berth in the upcoming AMC Tournament, but a win on Saturday would almost lock up a first-round home match.
