After a strong effort in the 2022 Jayhawk Conference opener last week, Hutchinson Community College women’s soccer sophomore goalkeeper Oliva Felix-Cardona was named the Jayhawk Conference Division I Goalkeeper of the Week on Tuesday.

In her only action of the week, Felix-Cardona, a sophomore from Wichita, made three big second-half saves and help the Blue Dragons to a 3-1 Jayhawk Conference-opening victory at Kansas City.

After giving up an early goal, Felix-Cardona shut down the high-scoring Blue Devils. She had four saves overall, three coming in the second half, a half in which the Blue Dragons dominated possession.

For the season, Felix-Cardona is 2-0 with a 1.50 goals-against average and a .727 save percentage.

This is the second time Felix-Cardona won the conference Goalkeeper of the Week award. She also won the award in Week 1 of the 2021 season.

The Blue Dragons travel to Garden City on Wednesday and plays host to Neosho County at 4 p.m. on Saturday at the Salthawk Sports Complex.
