Team of the week nominations can be sent to college@topdrawersoccer.com.

The adjustment period for a freshman to college soccer is different for everyone, but late in the season it seems like everyone starts to find their role and click. Recently, Gatorade Player of the Year Cristian Roldan has been fitting in nicely with the Huskies. With three goals and two assists over the course of the past week, the midfielder has been a key part of the Huskies’ attack.

For his contributions, Roldan has been named the TopDrawerSoccer.com Player of the Week.
