IRVING, Texas — Oklahoma State's Kim Rodriguez has been named the Big 12 Conference Defensive Player of the Week for the third week of the season.
A junior defender for the Cowgirls, Rodriguez played all 180 minutes in helping OSU post shutout wins over Central Arkansas and Saint Louis and remain unbeaten with a 4-0-1 mark. She recorded three assists on the weekend to bring her season total to four, which ranks second in the Big 12.
Rodriguez had a pair of assists in Friday's win over UCA, recording those on OSU's first and third goals in the match. On Sunday, she collected an assist on a corner kick on the Cowgirls' initial goal against Saint Louis.
With Rodriguez helping anchor the defensive back line, OSU held its two opponents to a combined 10 shots on the weekend, just four of those on goal, and the Cowgirls have now posted shutouts in four of their five matches this season while allowing only two goals on the year.
