WOMEN’S COLLEGE SOCCER: UTPB’s Leggiero named LSC player of the week

UTPB senior Tatiana Leggiero was named this week’s Lone Star Conference Player of the Week.

She is the first player to earn offensive honors in program history.

Legiero had a strong performance in the Falcons’ 5-1 win over West Texas A&M last week, which was the program’s first victory over the Lady Buffs.

Her goal against West Texas A&M came just 25 seconds into the start of the second half and it was her third straight game of scoring a goal.

UTPB (3-3-3 overall, 1-1-2 in conference) is off to its best conference start in program history.

The Falcons will next play at Angelo State at 7 p.m. Wednesday in San Angelo.
