Trinidad & Tobago and West Texas A&M midfielder Asha James has been named the Lone Star Conference’s women's soccer Offensive Player of the Week for the second time this season.

James led the West Texas A&M Lady Buffaloes to a 1-0-1 week to improve to 8-1-1 on the season.

James was instrumental in their 3-2 win over UT Tyler last Saturday as West Texas A&M improved to 8-1-1 on the season. The junior placed two of her three shots on goal, including her game-tying strike off a corner kick in the 58th minute.

The Trinidad and Tobago midfielder found Maliyah Mendoza in the 66th minute to provide the game-winner on another set piece from the corner.

The 22-year-old has made three appearances for the Trinidad & Tobago since her debut in 2019.
