TCU has earned seven awards this season
FORT WORTH – TCU women's soccer sophomore Grace Collins was named the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week, while junior defender Brandi Peterson was selected as the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Week. The honor is the second of the season and the third of her career for Collins while it's the second of the campaign for Peterson.
By connecting on the lone goal of the night in TCU's 1-0 win over West Virginia, Collins helped the Horned Frogs secure the 2020 Big 12 regular-season title. It marked her third-consecutive game-winning goal and pushed her career-high goal total to five.
Peterson led TCU by anchoring the backline that limited West Virginia to 12 shots and three on goal in the 1-0 shutout. The Horned Frogs did not allow a shot on goal in the second half and surrendered only two first-half corner kicks.
