St. Louis Ambush midfielder Jeff DiMaria and forward Odaine Sinclair have earned “honorable mention” from the Major Arena Soccer League in weekly Team of the Week awards for week 16 of the 2014-15 season.

The Ambush split two games during week 16, losing a 10-5 duel to the Missouri Comets on February 6 and winning a 7-3 battle over the Tulsa Revolution on February 7. In those two games, DiMaria registered two goals, including the game-winner on February 7, along with two assists and one block. Sinclair contributed two goals, two assists and one block.

DiMaria is in his seventh season of professional indoor soccer. He played two seasons with the St. Louis Steamers in the WISL, three seasons with the Steamers in the MISL, and is in his second season with the Ambush. This season is Sinclair’s second professional indoor season. He garnered the Major Indoor Soccer League’s Rookie of the Year award last season.

Following a weekend off, the Ambush return to Expo Square Pavilion in Tulsa for another battle with the Revolution on Friday, February 20. Following that match, the Ambush return home to the Family Arena when they host the Tacoma Stars in the final home game of the season Saturday, February 21 at 7:35 p.m.
