Kanuka Named to D3Kicks.Com Team of the Week
SWARTHMORE, Pa. - Swarthmore freshman forward Katie Kanuka (Oakville, Ontario, Canada / Holy Trinity Catholic) was named to the first-ever D3Kicks.com Team of the Week on Sept. 5.
D3Kicks.com, a brand-new web site, launched its first ever team of the week. The team of the week selections are based on nominations from coaches and sports information directors across the country.
Kanuka earned All-Tournament status after scoring her second game-winning goal in just her second career game, this one coming in the 84th minute, as Swarthmore (2-0) defeated William Paterson 2-1 at the 11th annual Swat Kick Classic on Sept. 3.
Kanuka, who had three goals in two games, put home the game-winner against Centenary on Saturday, Sept. 2 at the 69:44 mark to send the Garnet to a 1-0 victory.
Swarthmore has not lost their season opener in 11 years, dating back to 1996.
