Melissa Henderson and Sydney Leroux share the TopDrawerSoccer.com Women’s Player of the Week award while Tulsa’s Austin Neil won the men’s version of the award.

Leroux (UCLA) and Henderson (Notre Dame) each bagged 6 goals for their teams as both the Bruins and the Fighting Irish enjoyed lopsided wins in the opening two rounds of the NCAA Women’s Tournament. The TDS Player of the Week award has never been shared before, but in the spirit of last week’s dual award for National Player of the Season for Stanford duo Christen Press and Kelley O’Hara, it seemed the logical move given the prolific scoring feats this weekend for both Henderson and Leroux.

On the men’s side, Neil scored 3 times in 2 matches as the Golden Hurricane won the Conference USA Tournament. Neil has scored 11 goals on the season.
