Mason, Matchette net region, league honors ASHLAND � Two Southern Oregon University woman athletes � soccer player Tiffany Mason and volleyball player Kristina Matchett � were named players of the week in both the region and the Cascade Conference. Mason, a freshman from Medford, became Southern�s second Cascade Conference player of the week over the past three weeks and its first NAIA Region I player of the week by scoring five goals and assisting on two others in two Raider victories last week. The former South Medford High all-star set school game records for shots (10), goals (4), and game points (10) and tied the top assist mark (2) while leading the Raiders to a 7-0 thrashing of Oregon Tech on Sept. 26. She scored all three of the team�s goals in the first half, including her first collegiate penalty kick seconds before halftime. Against Evergreen, Mason scored her team-best sixth goal of the year in the 27th minute and took another six shots in Sunday�s 5-1 victory. Matchett, a freshman from Klamath Falls, also earned NAIA Region I player of the week honors following Southern�s weekend sweeps of Cascade, Northwest and Warner Pacific. The former Klamath Union all-star converted 28 of 45 attack attempts with only four miscues in the three wins for a whopping 53-percent efficiency. Against Warner Pacific, Matchett went 10-for-13 without an error for a 77-percent clip, one of the highest single-match percentages in school history.
