OMAHA, Neb. -- Creighton men's soccer senior defender Akeem Ward claimed a spot on the Top Drawer Soccer Men's Team of the Week (Aug. 20-26).
Ward tallied two assists and helped the Bluejays post a pair of shutouts to start the 2018 campaign, as Creighton posted consecutive shutouts to open the season for the first time since 2015.
The senior recorded each of his assists during Creighton's 2-0 upset victory over No. 11 Clemson on Friday during the season opener. He also played every minute of the Bluejays' 0-0 draw against UC Davis on Sunday night.
