Pickering Named MACJC POTW

From School Reports

Meridian Community College goalkeeper Chanler Pickering received a distinguished honor Monday afternoon by being named the MACJC Goalkeeper of the week as voted by the sports information directors inside the conference. 

Pickering will also be eligible for the National Goalkeeper of the week after helping pace the MCC Lady Eagles to a pair of conference victories last week. 

Pickering collected 20 saves total in the two wins and finished with a high of 14 saves in a 2-1 victory over Pearl River Community College at home last Wednesday. 

MCC will conclude the 2014 regular season Wednesday night at 5 p.m. against Southwest Mississippi Community College. The Lady Eagles need a victory combined with a loss by Pearl River to clinch the second seed inside the MACJC South Division standings. The team that finishes with the second seed will host the MACJC Quarterfinal round of the playoffs at home October 28.
