Douglas College freshman Shahbaz Khattra was the PacWest men’s soccer player of the week following a five-point weekend for the first-place Royals.
Khattra came on as a second-half sub, scoring two goals and setting up a third in the Royals’ 3-0 win over Kwantlen University at Town Centre Stadium on Saturday.
The following day, Khattra again scored the game-winner and assisted on another in a 2-0 victory in a return match with the Eagles.
The back-to-back wins were the fifth and sixth in a row for the PacWest leaders. Khattra moved up to second in overall league scoring with five goals in eight games.
Douglas currently leads the PacWest standings with a 7-2-1 record.
