SAN ANTONIO (Mar. 12, 2024) – San Antonio FC midfielder Jorge Hernandez has been named to the USL Championship Team of the Week after assisting twice in Saturday’s draw against Loudoun United FC.

After setting the club’s single-season assist record last season, Hernandez was the only player in the league with a multi-assist game on opening weekend. The midfielder also completed 29 of 35 passes and two of three dribbles in the draw.
Hernandez’s two assists bring his SAFC career total to 12, the third-most in club history.
