USC Release
KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The United Soccer Coaches (USC) released Tuesday evening its choice for NCAA Division III Men's Soccer Athlete of the Week. The organization chose freshman goalkeeper Anders Melton after stepping up in a big way for his team in the University of the South's draw with Oglethorpe University Saturday night, March 13.
The Baton Rouge, La. native entered the match against the defending Southern Athletic Association (SAA) Regular Season Championship and Tournament Finalist in the 26th minute. Melton, although conceiving a goal in the 1-1 draw, stopped six shots in 84 minutes.
The Tigers netted the equalizer in the 87th minute thanks to an Evan Poole goal from an Ethan Dutka pass.
Sewanee returns to action next Friday, March 26 vs. MUW for a 5:30 p.m. kickoff from Puett Field.
