Nashville SC News Release


TAMPA - Nashville SC defender Ken Tribbett was named to the USL Championship Team of the Week after notching a goal and an assist across two matches last week.

Starting in the midfield on Wednesday night against New York Red Bulls II, Tribbett rose up for a header off of a set piece early in the match to put Nashville SC into an early lead. It was Tribbett's fourth goal of the season and capped off a strong start to the match for Nashville SC.

On Saturday night, Tribbett made one of the most important plays of the match to help set up Bolu Akinyode's match-winning goal. He put a diving header towards the middle of the box that found the foot of Akinyode, who turned with it and put a deflected shot on net that went in and secured all three points for Nashville SC.

This is the third time this season that Tribbett has been named to the Team of the Week. Nashville SC is back in action this Saturday on the road at the Tampa Bay Rowdies.
