Castillo Named NSCAA National Player of the Week

Sept. 22, 2010

DALLAS (SMU) - SMU men's soccer player Juan Castillo has been named NSCAA National Player of the Week. Castillo collected two goals and an assist as the No. 9 Mustangs won the Bradley Tournament over the weekend. SMU improved to 7-0-0 on the season.

Castillo continued his incredible play as he guided SMU to two wins and Bradley Tournament championship. After falling behind 2-0 to No. 16 Creighton on Friday, Castillo started the SMU comeback with a breakaway in the 69th minute. He also drew the call to earn the PK in overtime, which SMU converted to win the game, 3-2. Sunday, Castillo once again helped lead a Mustang comeback as he got SMU on the board in the 40th minute to tie the game at one. Castillo also assisted on the game-winner for the 3-1 victory over Bradley. Castillo was named tournament MVP for his efforts and is currently in the middle of a five-game goal-scoring streak.

He leads the team in goals (6), points (13) and game-winning goals (3). Castillo is the two-time reigning Conference USA Player of the Week and has been named to the College Soccer News National Team of the Week each time.

SMU heads to the UAB Tournament in Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 24-26. The Mustangs open conference play Friday, Sept. 24 against UAB. SMU faces Jacksonville Sunday, Sept. 26.
