One day after being named the Jayhawk Conference Division I Goalkeeper of the Week, Hutchinson Community College freshman Evie Carvell was named the NJCAA Division I National Goalkeeper of the Week on Wednesday.
Carvell, a freshman from Billericay, England, became the first Blue Dragon goalkeeper to earn national weekly honors since Karsyn Slothower, who won the award on October 16, 2024.
Carvell had a tremendous opening week of her collegiate career, earning her first two career wins, posting her first career shutout and scoring her first win over a nationally ranked team to lead the No. 15-ranked Blue Dragons.
Carvell allowed only one goal with eight saves in wins over No. 12 Trinity Valley and Western Wyoming last week.
Against Trinity Valley, Carvell had three saves in four shots faced. Carvell had five saves in a shutout performance in a 3-0 win over Western Wyoming.
Carvell starts the season 2-0 with a 0.50 goals-against average and an .889 save percentage.
The now-No. 12-ranked Blue Dragons play host to Wichita United at 7 p.m. Thursday at the Salthawk Soccer Complex.
