El Dorado Hills, Calif. --- MaxPreps and The United Soccer Coaches, the online high school sports leader, and a CBSSports.com site are once again teaming up to present the State Player of the Week program. This program was created in an effort to promote high school soccer and highlight accomplishments of the nearly 800,000 student-athletes participating in the sport annually throughout the entire nation.
Winners will receive an official certificate from MaxPreps and the United Soccer Coaches Association as well as unique recognition on the athlete's MaxPreps player profile page.
The United Soccer Coaches Association will use results and statistics provided by MaxPreps to select one boy and one girl Player of the Week across the country. For a player to be nominated, their coach must enter the athlete's game
stats into MaxPreps by Sunday evening to be eligible for that week.

"With this award, every player has the opportunity to win. If you have a great week in play and your coach enters your stats into MaxPreps, you can win," MaxPreps Soccer Coordinator Alisa Dancer said. "You don't have to be on the best team in the nation or even be the best player on your team. This program is unique in that way: Every athlete has the potential to get recognized."
