Forward Diana Ordoñez with the Virginia women’s soccer team has been named the ACC’s Co-Offensive Player of the Week.

Ordoñez came up big for the Cavaliers last week in helping Virginia go undefeated with wins over No. 2 Duke and at NC State. The junior forward hit the game-winning goal in the 1-0 victory over the second-ranked and undefeated Blue Devils on Thursday night. It was her 11th game-winning goal of her career and the fourth of the season. She then assisted on the game-winning goal in the 90th minute at NC State in a 2-1 victory over the Wolfpack.

The wins helped keep the Cavaliers undefeated in ACC play as Virginia improved to 10-1-0 on the season and 3-0-0 in conference play. Virginia will return to action on Sunday (Oct. 3) when the Cavaliers travel to face North Carolina in a 1 p.m. match on ACC Network.
