MCC Soccer Star Named MACJC POTW

From School Reports

Meridian Community College freshman forward Effie Morrison was named the recipient of the MACJC Player of the Week on Tuesday morning as voted on by representatives of each conference school. Morrison led the MCC soccer team to a pair of key MACJC South Division victories last week to help her squad keep pace in the tough divisional race. Morrison had a superb pair of games by scoring six goals in 10 shots to help MCC defeat Mississippi Gulf Coast and Co-Lin.

Morrison currently has 10 total goals for the season which ranks 11^th in the country among all junior college players. Morrison, the former New Hope star, will now be nominated for NJCAA National Player of the Week which will be announced later this week. The Lady Eagles are currently 4-3-1 overall and 3-2 in conference action for the 2015 season. MCC will return to action today by hosting Northwest Mississippi Community College in non-conference action at 2 p.m.
