The USL Championship has named Louisville City FC’s Kevon Lambert to its Team of the Week, the league announced Tuesday.
Lambert led LouCity defensively with on Saturday in a 2-0 win over the Charleston Battery. He finished the game with 14 clearances, 11 duels own, three tackles and 44 completed passes, all leading the team.
Nominally a midfielder, Lambert has filled in a center back of late and has excelled. Earlier this month, the 6-foot-4 Jamaican international led LouCity with 17 clearances in the Prinx Tires USL Cup Final, second most for the club in a USL-sanctioned game.
Since returning from injury on Sept. 5, Lambert has started seven consecutive games, including four straight in which he has played all 90 minutes.
The selection marks the 19th time this season a LouCity player has been chosen for the USL Championship Team of the Week. It is Lambert’s first selection this season.
Lambert and LouCity return to Lynn Family Stadium on Saturday for the first time since Sept. 19, hosting Indy Eleven. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m.
The game will be Pink Night as LouCity — in partnership with UofL Health — raises breast cancer awareness and recognizes members of the community impacted by the disease.
