CHICAGO --- Leading their team to a pair of conference victories over teams receiving votes in the latest NAIA poll, Olivet Nazarene University's Elisabeth Wahl (Homer Glen, Ill.) and Katrina Holm (Antioch, Ill.) have been named the Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference Women's Soccer Players of the Week for the seven-day period ending Oct. 21, it was announced by the league office.

Wahl, a freshman forward, garnered the offensive honors after scoring a goal in each of the decisive victories to keep the Tigers alone atop the league standings at 9-0.  She tallied the only goal in a 1-0 victory over Robert Morris University on Tuesday before producing her second game-winning goal of the week in a 3-0 shutout of Trinity International University on Saturday.

At the time of each game, both Trinity International and Robert Morris sat right behind Olivet Nazarene (13-2 overall) in the conference standings.

Holm, a senior defender, got the job done defensively anchoring a unit that has not allowed a goal in conference play this season.  Robert Morris was limited to just four shots in the game on Tuesday with only two being on goal.  Trinity International had eight shots, only five of which were on goal.

Olivet Nazarene, which is ranked No. 10 in the latest NAIA Coaches' Poll, can wrap up the regular-season conference title outright with a victory over University of St. Francis on Wednesday night.
