SEGUIN, Texas — Coming off her impressive 2025 debut, Texas Lutheran women’s soccer junior Kristina Cromwell (Spring/Klein Collins) has been named Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) Offensive Player of the Week for the first time in her career, the conference announced Tuesday.
A native of Spring, Texas, and a Trinity Valley CC transfer, Cromwell collected two goals along with an assist for a total of five points to push the Bulldogs past Division-II Sul Ross State on Saturday in the season opener.
Cromwell teamed with senior Klarissa Martinez to score the first TLU goal of the 2025 season in the 11th-minute. Cromwell then found a leaping Natalia Cortez on a corner kick for her first assist as a Bulldog in the 48th minute to bring the game to a 2-0 score. Cromwell found the back of the net again in the 59th minute via an assist from freshman Makenzie Ivie scoring the third of what would be five TLU goals in Saturday’s 5-0 shutout victory over the Lobos.
Saturday’s brace was Cromwell’s second career brace and first as a Bulldog.
Texas Lutheran returns to action on Saturday, Sept. 6 as they travel to Brownwood to face Howard Payne at 1 PM then Edinburg on Sunday to face UT-Rio Grande Valley in an exhibition at 11 AM. All streaming and live stats links will be available on tlubulldogs.com.
