Christensen was the only keeper to record a clean sheet last week out of four other matchups. Shultz assisted Christensen in securing the defense for Greenville, tallying four clearances, three recoveries, an interception and winning 12 of 15 ground and air duals. Gavilanes rounded out the Triumph players on week 7 TOTW. Gavilanes, who has been putting up numbers all season, finally claimed his first goal and assist in Greenville’s victory over Madison.
