GREENVILLE, S.C. – Javier Bello of Francis Marion and Sergi Quixal of Converse have picked up the men’s soccer weekly honors for Conference Carolinas for the week ending Sept. 25, 2022.
Bello was tabbed as the Offensive Player of the Week, while Quixal was chosen as the Defensive Player of the Week.
A graduate student from Madrid, Spain, Bello needed just 97 minutes on the pitch to collect six points (two goals and two assists) last week in two matches to help lead Francis Marion to two huge league wins. Bello first assisted the opening goal of the match and then scored the second goal of the contest in the 49
th minute in Francis Marion’s 3-0 home conference win over Mount Olive on Wednesday, Sept. 21. Bello followed up the four-point performance by scoring another right before the halftime break in Francis Marion’s eventual 3-1 home league victory over No.18 North Greenville on Saturday, Sept. 24. Bello leads Francis Marion with three goals and two assists on the season.
A graduate student from Vinaros, Spain, Quixal logged 176 pivotal minutes in league wins over Southern Wesleyan and Belmont Abbey. The two league wins allowed Converse to take over sole possession of first place in Conference Carolinas with a perfect 4-0 conference mark so far. Quixal and the Converse defense limited Southern Wesleyan to just four shots (one on goal) in a 6-0 home win for the Valkyries on Sept. 21. Quixal finished the win with an impressive four assists. Quixal followed up the four-assist performance in the shutout victory by scoring two goals in Converse’s thrilling 3-2 league win over Belmont Abbey. He scored the game-winner in the 84
th minute. Quixal presently leads all in Conference Carolinas and is tied for fourth in the nation with six assists. He is tied for third in Conference Carolinas in total points with 12 (three goals and six assists).
