Jackets’ Weisen Garners Heartland Award
(10/10/06)
BILLINGS, MT – Montana
State-Billings men’s soccer player
Jarred Weisen was named Heartland Conference Co-Offensive
Player of the Week for the week of October 2-8. The award is
Weisen’s first and the programs fifth of the year.
Weisen, a freshman midfielder
from Great Falls, Montana scored the lone goal in Friday’s
shutout win over University of Mary. The goal came at the 78:59
mark on a mid-field pass from
Jay
Doogan (Glasgow, Scotland) to
Jurell Linford (Missoula, MT). Linford crossed to the left
side of the net making contact with Weisen for the game-winning
goal. The goal is Weisen’s second of his collegiate career and
more importantly lifted the Jackets to three consecutive wins; a
feat that has not been accomplished since September 2003.
The Yellowjackets take to the
road for a three-game road trip to Texas. The Jackets will play
No. 8 Incarnate Word (11-1-2) on October 13 followed by a match
against St. Mary’s (3-6-3) on October 15. The Jackets will wrap
up the trip with a game against St. Edward’s (4-2-4) on October
17.
