Last year, defender Zak Wegner did not play a single minute for Marquette men’s soccer. A year later, the redshirt freshman has played in every match this season.
Much of the reason for the change is Wegner’s versatility. He has played three different positions since the spring exhibition season, and he has already played two in the fall season.
Growing up in nearby Hartland, Wisconsin, he made the trek to Valley Fields many times to see the Golden Eagles. It was one of the reasons he wanted to come play for the Golden Eagles. Other reasons included the short distance from his house and a love for Milwaukee.
