Calgary Storm's Jordan Gillespie was selected to the A-League Team of the Week. Jordan's success came in part from scoring the opeing goal in Storm's 2-1 win over Seattle Sounders last Sunday at Seahawks Stadium.
Jordan, who hails from Saskatoon, currently attends the University of Alberta in the off season while studying for a degree in arts. At 6'0" tall and 175 lbs., Jordan has brought physical play to the team since joining Storm midway through last season after playing in the reserve team at the PDL level.
"I am very honoured to be selected this early in the season. It was a great win against Seattle, but one game does not make a season. We will will have our work cut out for us this Saturday on our home opener which is a rematch against Seattle. I am sure the Sounders, who had the best record in the league last year, will be out for revenge." said Jordan.
Game time Saturday May 10th in Calgary is at 5:00 p.m. at Foothills Park.
