LAWRENCE, Kan. - Kansas junior defender
Caroline Castans was selected to TopDrawerSoccer's Women's Team of the Week, the publication announced Tuesday. Castans was one of 11 Division I women's soccer players selected to the team.
A native of Flower Mound, Texas, Castans helped the Jayhawks stay unbeaten with a 1-0 record last week, as Kansas defeated Oklahoma State 1-0 in the Big 12 opener. She currently leads Kansas in assists this season with five, and is second on the team in points with nine. She also is tied for third in the Big 12 in assists this season.
This marks the second time that Castans has been selected to the TDS National Team of the Week in her career. She was chosen to the team last season on Oct. 29, 2024.Â
With its win over Oklahoma State, Kansas remained unbeaten on the season at 7-0-2 while opening conference play 1-0. KU's current nine-match unbeaten streak is the longest streak to begin a season unbeaten in program history.Â
The No. 14 Jayhawks play their first conference home matches of the season this weekend, hosting Baylor on Thursday, Sept. 25, at 6 p.m. CT before welcoming No. 10 TCU to Rock Chalk Park Sunday, Sept. 28 at 12 p.m. CT. Tickets for both matches can be purchased by clicking
