Wednesday, June 14, 2006

TAMPA, FL – United Soccer Leagues announced Wednesday its USL Premier Development League and W-League Teams of the Week for the eighth week of the season, honoring Ogden’s Kenneth Hickman and Michigan’s Kristi Swaving as the Players of the Week, respectively.

The Ogden Outlaws kept pace with the Northwest Division leaders with a win and draw over the weekend with forward Kenneth Hickman leading the way with three goals and an assist in the two matches.

The Outlaws opened the weekend Saturday with a 4-0 win over the visiting Cascade Surge. Hickman opened the scoring in the 40th minute on an assist from Armin Sedaravic for a 1-0 lead at the break. Five minutes after Sedaravic made it 2-0 in the 71st, Hickman put the game well out of reach for the Surge with his second of the night.

The following night against second-place Abbotsford, , the visiting Rangers got on the board first with a strike from Jason Jorgensen 15 minutes. Just like the night before, Hickman struck as the intermission approached, leveling the score in the 42nd minute.

Michael Riehl put the visitors on top again five minutes into the second frame, but Hickman replied by setting up second half sub Bruno Baca with the equalizer in the 69th to keep the Outlaws within one point of the Rangers in the table.

The Michigan Hawks remain near the top of the table in the Midwest Division following a 5-0 road win over the Fort Wayne Fever in which Kristi Swaving scored four times.

A tight match through the first 40 minutes, Swaving broke the deadlock with her first of four straight strikes in the 41st, following it up with her second just two minutes later.

Swaving, who was named to the Team of the Week earlier in the season for a hat-trick, completed the hat-trick eight minutes into the second and added the fourth in the 69th.
