 Maxence Voinier – Voinier tallied a five-point weekend for the number five ranked Barton men’s soccer team as the Cougars earned a 2-0 win in their season-opening match against Eastern Oklahoma State before thrashing Northern Oklahoma College-Enid 9-1 the following night. In their match against Eastern Oklahoma State, Voinier set up the eventual game-winning goal against the Mountaineers and followed up his performance on Saturday by helping the Cougars produce its highest output over an NJCAA opponent since 2019 by scoring a goal and adding a distraction resulting in a teammate’s goal during the 9-1 victory over the Jets.

 Bruno Mestres – Mestres showed off his skill set as a high-level goalkeeper on Sunday in Seward County’s season-opening match against Laramie County Community College by making six emphatic saves for a .857 save percentage while playing all 90 minutes in a 1-0 Saints loss to the Golden Eagles.
