INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. - After having a hand in all three of the Lincoln men's soccer team's goals last week, Jerome Lawel was selected as the GLVC Offensive Player of the Week. The league office announced the honor on Monday afternoon (Oct. 12).

Lawel scored both of LU's goals in its 2-1 home victory of MIssouri-St. Louis on Oct. 7. On Sunday (Oct. 11), Lawel had an assist on Lincoln's goal in a 1-1 draw on the road against Indianapolis. Lawel, who totaled five points for the week, attempted four total shots on goal.

This is the first career GLVC Offensive Player of the Week award for Lawel, who becomes the third Blue Tiger in a row to claim the honor. Jonathan Nemorden was recognized on Sept. 28 and Makwe Nkoana earned the accolade on Oct. 5. Lincoln, which is unbeaten at 7-0-4, has had five players honored by the conference this season, as keepers Vincent Osei and Felipe Mattos have each been named GLVC Defensive Player of the Week.

The Blue Tigers travel to St. Louis, Mo. on Wednesday (Oct. 14) to play Maryville at 12:00 p.m. CDT.
