SEASIDE, Calif. - As a result of Monterey Bay's shutout win away from home against Eastern Conference side Memphis 910 FC, goalkeeper Carlos Herrera has earned USL Championship Team of the Week honors for Week 27 of the 2023 regular season. Herrera's performance between the sticks at AutoZone Park in Tennessee over the weekend has earned the San Leandro, California native the first top-11 honor of his young career.

Herrera, 26 today, anchored the Monterey Bay defense with seven saves enroute to an impressive road clean sheet, the Union's second consecutive road win and third victory in a row overall.
