COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference has released the fourth edition of its 2025 Women's Soccer Player of the Week Awards, and Regis University's Natalie Bunch has been named the league's Offensive Player of the Week.

It is Bunch's first weekly accolade of the year, and she is joined by the Defensive Player of the Week, Olivia Barrett of Colorado Mesa, and the Goalkeeper of the Week, Nylah Mirshafiei of UCCS.

Bunch, a senior forward from Moses Lake, Wash., led the Rangers to a 2-0 start to the RMAC season with road wins at Adams State and New Mexico Highlands. At ASU, Bunch scored two goals, including converting a penalty kick, and assisted on the third in the 3-1 win. She followed that by recording a first half hat trick in RU's dominant 4-0 win at NMHU. On the week, all eight of her shots were on goal, and with her stellar performances, Bunch finishes the weekend as the RMAC leader in goals, points, and shots.

Bunch and the Rangers now look ahead to their home conference openers, hosting Colorado State University-Pueblo on Thursday, October 2 at 7 pm, and Colorado School of Mines on Sunday, October 5 at 1 pm.
