MILWAUKEE –
Fernando Pirry of the Milwaukee men's soccer team has been named the Horizon League Under Armour Offensive Player of the Week, the league office announced this afternoon.
Pirry tied the program record for goals in a game when he scored four times in Milwaukee's 9-1 victory over Chicago State this week.
The outburst tied the NCAA high for goals in a game for men's soccer this fall and Pirry actually accomplished the feat in the first half alone. He scored in the 21st, 25th, 40th, and 41
st minutes as the Panthers rolled to the big win.
The award is the first of his career and the first for the program since the Panthers swept the weekly awards October 7 of last season.
