Dewey named USL W League Divisional Player of the Year

The USL W League announced Tuesday its Divisional Players of the Year with a list that featured Indy Eleven midfielder Sam Dewey as the Valley Division honoree.

Dewey (photo, right), a Triton Central graduate, played in nine matches during the Eleven’s championship run, starting all of them. She shared the team lead with nine goals, including a hat trick in Indy’s record-breaking 16-0 win against St. Charles FC on June 30. The Indianapolis native also added an assist in the USL W League Semifinal victory.

 

 

Prior to her time with the Eleven, Dewey was a standout at Xavier, earning BIG East Midfielder of the Year accolades in 2018 and a spot on the United Soccer Coaches All-East Region Third Team.

Indy Eleven defeated NC Courage U23 in the USL W League Final on Saturday in front of a record crowd to finish their second season 12-1-1.

Indy is 22-2-3 in the club’s two seasons, reaching double-digit wins and earning a playoff berth each year.
