Alabama soccer's Melina Rebimbas scored two goals in last week's comeback victory against Auburn on Friday, a 4-3 win at home for the Crimson Tide. She was named SEC Offensive Player of the Week for her performance, which also included an assist.

She leads the Alabama team with six assists in 2025. The one she recorded against the Tigers led to the winning goal off the boot of senior Gianna Paul.

Rebimbas has three goals this season. She transferred to Alabama from North Carolina after the 2023 campaign; she played in Tuscaloosa that September as a Tar Heel.

  • October 14, 1961: After trailing for the first time in the season, Alabama roared back to down Roman Gabriel-led North Carolina State 26-7 at Denny Stadium. Touchdown passes from Pat Trammell to Richard Williamson and Bill Battle gave Alabama a 12-7 halftime lead. A 5-yard run by Trammell and a 45-yard sprint by fullback Ed Versprille capped the Crimson Tide's rally. In the head-to-head quarterback matchup, Trammell was 10-for-14 for 155 yards while Gabriel finished 16-for-23 for 123 yards. – Bryant Museum
