College Soccer Star

Akron’s Steve Zakuani, who is only a sophomore, has received three more individual awards this week including Mid-American Conference Player of the Week for the second straight time in two weeks. He was also included in the College Soccer News and Top Drawer Soccer National Team of the Week. Steve Zakuani was born in the Congo and was raised in London and moved to the United States to play soccer for Akron University. He has had three goals and two assists in six games this season. He is very skillful with the ball and works very hard on improving his game. The team’s record is 3 wins 1 loss and 2 ties and are now ranked number 10 in the top 25. The team has definitely been helped by the explosiveness of Steve Zakuani’s play. The Akron soccer team is still in contention for championship but needs to improve some areas to make it. All in all Steve Zakuani is an amazing soccer player and will be heard more about as he grows as a young man and soccer player.
