SAN ANTONIO - San Antonio FC midfielder Jorge Hernandez, defender Jimmy Medranda and forward Santiago Patiño have been named to the USL Championship Team of the Week following the team's 5-2 win on the road over Loudoun United FC.

Hernandez secured his team-leading fourth selection with his first brace of the season Saturday. Netting his ninth and tenth goals, the midfielder became the seventh player in club history to score double-digit goals in a single season. Hernandez added five shots on the night and assisted Medranda on the team's opening goal.

Medranda earns his third weekly recognition after providing an instant spark for SAFC off the bench as a halftime sub. The Colombian kicked off the team's scoring with the first goal in the 58th minute, following with a pair of assists to Patiño and Hernandez and five chances created.

Patiño was named to the Team of the Week bench for his efforts in the match, poaching his first score of the campaign in the 61st minute. The striker also put up three shots and an 88% passing accuracy in his first start since returning to the club in August.

SAFC now stands at 17 Team of the Week honors for the season from 12 different players.

San Antonio FC is back at home this Saturday, Sept. 20 to host Orange County SC. Kickoff from Toyota Field is set for 7:30 p.m. CT, and the match will be broadcast on FanDuel Sports Network and ESPN+. The 10th anniversary season is presented by Toyota.
