BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Following strong efforts in the season opener against Division I Mercer on Saturday, Reid Chaconas and David Welsh have been tabbed the SSC’s Offensive and Defensive Players of the Week. This is the first weekly honor earned by either player in their career.

Welsh guided the Panther defense finishing with five ground balls and a game-high four caused turnovers in the game.
