Charlie Barker was named in the Vanarama National League Team of the Week following a standout performance in Wealdstone’s 1-1 draw at Woking on Saturday.
The 20-year-old defender has enjoyed an impressive loan spell with the Stones, who currently sit 11th, seven points outside the play-off places.
Elsewhere in non-League, there was a Dulwich Hamlet debut for U21 striker Dylan Gavin, while U21 goalkeeper Nathan Harvey earned his Chatham Town bow in a 1-1 draw against Sittingbourne in the Isthmian League South East Division. The stopper then helped the Chats into the semi-finals of the Kent Senior Cup on Tuesday night by saving a penalty in a 5-3 shootout victory over Corinthian.
Fellow U21 duo Mack Reilly and Sahid Kamara both started Corinthian Casuals’ goalless draw at home to Canvey Island in the Isthmian League Premier Division last weekend.
Karoy Anderson was an unused substitute in Aldershot Town’s 4-1 reverse at Barnet.
In League One, there was a clean sheet for centre-back Sam Lavelle as Burton Albion drew 0-0 at home to Accrington Stanley, with fellow Addick Charlie Kirk introduced as a second-half substitute.
There were also appearances for Conor McGrandles and Alex Gilbey for Cambridge United and Stevenage respectively, although both players found themselves on the losing side.
Meanwhile, AFC Wimbledon loanee Diallang Jaiyesimi is set to be sidelined for a number of weeks with a hamstring injury.
