Charlotte, NC - Charlotte 49ers women's soccer junior forward Nikki Dumencich (Greensboro, NC/Western Guilford) was named Atlantic 10 Player of the Week for her performance in the 49ers road win at Dayton, Sunday. The 49ers have had a player named A-10 Player of the Week in three of the last four weeks as Dumencich joins Sam Huecker (October 15) and Lindsey Ozimek (October 1) as 49ers that have earned A-10 Player of the Week honors this month.

Dumencich scored both of Charlotte's goals in their 2-1 win at Dayton. Dumencich's two goals were her first multiple goals of the season and the second of her career.
