Cal Jennings Earns USLC Team of the Week Selection for Week 27

Charleston Battery News Release


The USL Championship announced Tuesday that Charleston Battery forward Cal Jennings was named to the league's Week 27 Team of the Week.

It's a deserved honor for Jennings, who tagged Indy Eleven twice in Charleston's playoff-clinching 2-1 win on Saturday.

Midfielder Aaron Molloy also garnered an honorable mention to the Team of the Week Bench. Molloy was active all over the pitch with a game-high 105 accurate passes, along with six duels won, four clearances, two interceptions, two chances created and six recoveries.

Jennings' two goals proved to be the difference against Indy. His first tally was a clinical conversion from the penalty spot to give Charleston a lead right before halftime. In the second half, Jennings' pressure paid off as he forced Indy into an errant backward pass that sent the ball towards the goal, and he then won the footrace to knock it in. It's Jennings' fourth multi-goal game of the year and elevated him into sole possession of first in the Championship Golden Boot race.

The selection is Jennings' sixth of the year and brings the Battery's season total for the accolade to 26.

Charleston's next match will be home vs. Oakland Roots SC on Sat., Sept. 13, as the club celebrates Hispanic Heritage Night at Patriots Point. Tickets for the rematch are on sale now via SeatGeek.com, the club's exclusive digital ticketing provider.
