Illinois Springfield junior forward Autumn Diduch has been named the Great Lakes Valley Conference/Athletic Solutions Women's Soccer Offensive Player of the Week, the league office announced Monday afternoon.
The honor is the first career GLVC weekly award for Diduch, who helped the Prairie Stars to a 2-0 week in conference play with a team-high six points.
Diduch opened the week with a five-point performance in UIS' 7-0 victory over Upper Iowa on Wednesday. The Freeport, Ill., native scored twice and added two assists, contributing directly to four of the Prairie Stars' seven goals.
Diduch finished the week with three total shots, all on target, while playing 102 minutes.Â
Autumn Diduch becomes the first Prairie Star to earn GLVC Offensive Player of the Week honors since Mallory Herber received the award on Sept. 15, 2025.Â
UIS returns to action Wednesday when it hosts UIndy in a Homecoming Week matchup at 4 p.m.
