Castro and Auguste Claim BIG EAST Offensive and Defensive Player of the Week

Omaha, Neb. -- Coming off a decisive 3-0 win over DePaul, a pair of Bluejay men's soccer players hard work was rewarded as sophomore Jackson Castro and senior Charles Auguste captured BIG EAST Offensive and Defensive Player of the Week honors on Monday, October 31.

Castro led Creighton to a decisive 3-0 win over DePaul in the lone match of the week for the Bluejays, with a goal and an assist. Jackson changed the tone of the match early in the second half with a goal in the 49^th minute to push Creighton's advantage to 2-0. His assist came in the waning moments of the contest, lofting a pass to the head of Alejandro Maillet in the 88^th minute.

Auguste anchored a Creighton defense that posted its second shutout of the season, limiting DePaul to just four shots on Saturday night. The Bluejays' back line held the Blue Demons to two shots in each half and allowed just a pair of corner kicks.

The Bluejays will close out the regular season on Wednesday, November 2 at Providence at 6:00 p.m.
