GCU junior earns 3rd weekly WAC honor after collecting 15 saves in 2 matches

By: Jerob Moon

For the third time this season, Grand Canyon junior DeAira Jackson earned WAC Goalkeeper of the Week on Tuesday.

Jackson earned the weekly honor after collecting 15 saves against Loyola Marymount and Arkansas last week. Against the Lions in a 2-1 win, Jackson made five saves, including two crucial saves in a late three-minute stretch of the game to preserve the 2-0 lead. On Sunday against the Razorbacks, Jackson collected a season-high 10 saves, the most by a GCU goalkeeper since 2021.

Jackson has been one of the top goalies in the WAC during nonconference play, ranking second in goals against average (0.8 per game) and save percentage (.826) while also ranking fourth in saves (38). The GCU junior also leads the conference with five shutouts.

Jackson and the Lopes will be back in action this week at GCU Stadium as conference play begins with Seattle U on Thursday night and Utah Valley on Sunday.
