STATESBORO, Ga. – South Georgia Tormenta FC defender Joshua Phelps and forward Kazaiah Sterling were named to the USL League One Team of the Week for Week Ten after helping Tormenta FC obtain a valuable point on the road against the Richmond Kickers this past Saturday.
For a second consecutive week, Phelps makes an appearance on League One’s Team of the Week following a solid performance in Richmond. Phelps led the defensive line last Saturday with his 94% passing accuracy and 100% dribble completions. Additionally, Phelps gathered 14 recoveries and two interceptions.
Kazaiah Sterling’s addition to Week Ten’s Team of the Week is no surprise. With two assists and multiple chances being started by the forward, Sterling played a crucial part in both goals. Sterling’s ability to find and create chances will be a force to be reckoned with in the coming weeks as he continues to solidify himself as one of the best players in USL League One. Sterling is credited with winning four fouls and completing 100% of his dribbles and winning eight of nine ground duels.
