Reaction save against Rowdies earns young standout weekly honor

TAMPA, Fla. – Charleston Battery goalkeeper Alex Tambakis won the USL Fans’ Choice Save of the Week for Week 18 of the 2017 season, with his reflex save against the Tampa Bay Rowdies last Saturday night finishing top of the weekly online poll.

Tambakis has impressed with the Battery over the past two seasons while on loan with the club from Major League Soccer’s Atlanta United FC. Against the Rowdies he pulled off another excellent stop as his quick reflexes turned aside a fierce finish by former England international Joe Cole at Al Lang Stadium.

Tambakis received 52 percent of the poll conducted online at USLSoccer.com that concluded on Thursday morning. Seattle Sounders FC 2 goalkeeper Bryan Meredith took second place for his fine double-save against the Swope Park Rangers last Thursday night with 36 percent, while Toronto FC II’s Mark Pais finished third on 14 percent for his full-stretch stop to deny the New York Red Bulls II’s Vincent Bezecourt last Friday night.
