WASHINGTON — The Atlantic 10 Conference has announced its weekly honors in women’s soccer. The awards are for games played from October 19-25.

Offensive Player of the Week: Hope Kim (Overland Park, Kan.), Saint Louis
Defensive Player of the Week: Pepper Escher (So., Brewster, Mass.), Saint Louis
Rookie of the Week: Shiloh Moore (Fr., Cinnaminson, N.J.), La Salle

The Billikens have been the top dog all season, with Hope Kim being a big reason why. In a pivotal match against the third-ranking La Salle, Kim delivered a goal and an assist to take down the Explorers, 2-1. Kim’s score represented the game-winner, as she found the back of the net in the 58th minute to give Saint Louis the one-goal victory. Kim also supplied an assist on the game-winner, which came 42 seconds into the contest, in their next game against Duquesne. The Billikens are sitting pretty heading into the final week of the regular season, where they have a date with Rhode Island.

Pepper Escher has also been a large part of the Billiken’s success this year. The sophomore goaltender made six stops across the two-win weekend, allowing just one goal against La Salle while shutting out Duquesne. Escher ranks top three in the conference in saves, shutouts per game, and goals against average, the latter of which she ranks 16th in the nation in (.480).

Shiloh Moore continues to make her push for Atlantic 10 Rookie of the Year, producing another goal and two assists against George Mason. Following a tight one-score loss to Saint Louis, the Explorers bounced back in a big way against the Patriots, winning 5-1. The win for La Salle snaps a George Mason home winning streak that began in October of 2025. Thanks to the efforts of Moore, La Salle is officially back in the postseason for the third time in the last four seasons.
