Nashville SC’s Jack Maher named to MLS Team of the Week

Nashville SC defender Jack Maher was named to the MLS Team of the Week for his performance in Nashville’s 3-0 win over Vancouver Whitecaps.

Maher scored a pair of goals, both headers, and put in a strong defensive shift to keep a clean sheet and hold Vancouver without a single shot on goal. Playing for the first time in four matches, and after five games out of the starting lineup, Maher didn’t miss a beat, filling in seamlessly for Walker Zimmerman, who was given the night to rest.

Maher is the 21st Nashville player to make the team of the week in 2022.
