Shadow’s Stingy Goalkeeper Honored Again
For the second time this season, Spokane Shadow goalkeeper John Nagel has been named to the USISL Premier League Team of the Week.
Nagle, who was honored for his play during the week of June 11-18, made four saves in as many attempts in Saturday’s shootout win over the Cascade Surge.
The victory was Spokane’s sixth in a row.
Nagel has allowed more than one goal just once during the six-game winning streak.
