INWsn College Best XI - Week 9: Howard and Camarillo Deliver Big Results

The season is starting to look a lot like the year of the goalkeeper on the women's side as week after week numerous netminders are putting forth outstanding performances. This week there was an abundance at the position, which was led by Claire Howard, who is dominating the Big Sky at the moment for Montana. On the men's side an offensive outburst by Wenatchee Valley and Jose Camarillo was just enough to win a goalfest and hand Spokane its first loss in the NWAC East.

About INWsn Best XI: Each week INWsoccernews will release lists of the week’s best performances (not necessarily positional as a traditional XI) for men’s and women’s soccer in the region, recognizing players at schools in the region or those from the area that play elsewhere in the nation. The list is extremely flexible and has no defined formation, despite featuring 11 players (when number of results/games allow). The Best XI was launched with the start of the site's collegiate coverage in 2012, continued through 2014 and was re-launched in 2017 after a two-year absence.
