October 13, 2016
DVC women's soccer player Vanessa Ruvalcaba, a freshman midfielder out of Pittsburg High, has been selected as Big 8 Conference Player of the Week for Oct. 3-7.
She scored two goals in spectacular fashion in the Vikings' 2-0 win over Sierra on Oct. 4, beating numerous defenders before rocketing shots into the net.
She also effectively distributed balls to the flank players in a 3-0 win over American River.
DVC entered the week with a 10-0-3 overall mark, and leads the Big 8 with a 5-0-3 record.
