Agirre Nominated for Hero Sports D2 Legend of 2015

BELLEVUE, Wash. - After earning Hero Sports D2 Women's Soccer Gem of the Week on Oct. 27, Anderson University women's soccer standout Idoia Agirre has been nominated for Hero Sports D2 Legend of 2015, announced by the publication on Tuesday.

Agirre won the weekly honor after recording her second hat trick of the season in a 5-0 victory over Emmanuel on Oct. 14, followed by forcing the eventual game-winning penalty kick in Anderson's triumph over Catawba on Oct. 17. Agirre fended off Grand Valley State's Kendra Stauffer (140 votes) and Armstrong State's Erica Laurens (129) to win the Gem of the Week award, as she racked up 347 votes marking 49.78 percent of the popular vote.

The forward closed the season by becoming AU's first-ever All-American and ranking sixth nationally in total goals with 22.
