Folks, we appear to have a new record as NINE players who appear to be playing college ball this fall made the PDL Team of the Week. Progress, baby! Is the PDL just putting more college kids on the ToW to placate me (doubtful) or are we seeing the PDL teams emphasizing more college players on their rosters? G Pat Hannigan South Jersey 11 saves on road in 3-1 win, 0-0 draw D Paul Ballard Abbotsford Solid play in win at Yakima, loss at Spokane *D Alex Brown Williamsburg Game-winner in 2-1 win over Harrisburg D Kevin Coleman Reading Solid play in 0-0 draw against unbeaten South Jersey M Orlando Ramirez Fresno Two goals in 4-2 win over Nevada M Jeff Rowland Indiana Four goals, assist in pair of wins over Cleveland M Dayton O'Brien Cape Cod Two assists in 4-2 win over Western Mass M Knox Cameron Michigan Two goals in 2-0 win over Indiana F Elfvir Kafedzic St Louis Three goals in 3-1 win at Nashville F Orville Mullings Central Florida Three goals, assist in pair of wins F Nowaf Jaman Chicago Four goals in 5-1 win over Kansas City * Player of the Week Hannigan will be a Sr. @ Temple this fall. http://www.owlsports.com/sports/msoccer/bio.asp?PLAYER_ID=696 Ballard will be a Sr. @ Trinity Western (a Canadian school) this fall. http://www.twu.ca/Athletics/Default.aspx?TopicID=269&ICardID=820 Coleman will be a Sr. @ LaSalle this fall. http://www.lasalle.edu/athletic/mens/soccer/players/coleman.htm Ramirez will be a Sr. at Fresno Pacific this fall. http://athletics.fresno.edu/sunbirdsports/soccer/men/profile/athlete/ramirez_orlando/bio.html Rowland will be a Jr. @ New Mexico this fall. http://golobos.collegesports.com/sports/m-soccer/mtt/rowland_jeff00.html O’Brien will be a Jr. @ Memphis this fall. http://gotigersgo.collegesports.com/sports/m-soccer/mtt/obrien_dayton01.html Cameron will be a Sr. @ Michigan this fall. http://www.mgoblue.com/bio.cfm?bio_id=226§ion_id=295&top=2&level=3&season=235 Kafedzic will be a Sr. @ Lindenwood this fall (I think) http://www.lindenwood.edu/athletics/soccer-mens.html (scroll down, it’s just the roster) Jaman will be a So. @ Western Illinois this fall. http://www.wiuathletics.com/soccer-m/roster.php Brown was a Sr. at William & Mary last fall and I couldn’t find any college link for Mullings.
In the off chance someone cares, I was able to confirm that Kafedzic was a Jr. at Lindenwood last year, thus I'm assuming he'll be a Sr. this fall.
