Darkoah earns MCAC honor for second time in 2014
Mercy Darkoah earned MCAC Offensive Player of the Week honors for the third time
BELLEVUE, Neb. - Bellevue senior Mercy Darkoah (Sheffield, England) has been named Midlands College Athletic Conference Women's Soccer Offensive Player of the Week, as announced by the conference. The honor is the third of Darkoah's career with the others coming Nov. 11, 2013 and Oct. 13, 2014.
Darkoah had a terrific week for Bellevue scoring four goals and three assists for 11 total points as No. 23 Bellevue (13-1-0, 5-0-0 MCAC) went a perfect 2-0 and claimed at least a share of the MCAC Regular Season title. In a 10-1 victory at York on Wednesday Darkoah directed the Bruin attack to near perfection, setting up three goals and scoring one herself.
In a Saturday win at Central Baptist she scored her conference-best third hat trick of the season as BU bested CBC 4-1. She has now totaled 10 goals in her last five matches and ranks ninth in the nation with 18 goals for the year.
The women's soccer team will wrap up the regular season with a 3:00 p.m. match-up against MCAC foe Waldorf College on Wednesday at Tranquility Park in Omaha.
