HENDERSON, Tenn. - Helena Yegros has been named the TranSouth Athletic Conference's women's soccer player of the week for the week ending Sunday, Aug 29.

Yegros, a 5-foot-5 forward/midfielder from Asuncion, Paraguay, tied her mark for goals in a season over the course of one week, getting four goals to help the Lady Lions to their best start in program history.  She scored twice and added an assist in FHU's 5-0 win over Atlanta Christian College on Aug. 23, then followed with two more goals on Aug. 26 as the Lady Lions played to a 2-2 tie with Pikeville (Ky.) College.

This marks her first time to win the award.  The last Lady Lion to take the honor was Whitney Newby, who was named the conference's player of the week in September of last year.

Freed-Hardeman (3-0-1) returns to action on Friday, Sept. 3, against Lambuth (Tenn.) University at 6:00 PM in the team's home opener.
