FIU’s Santiago Patino, a junior forward from Orlando, is off to a dominant start for the men’s soccer team.
In five games, he has 11 points — five goals and one assist. And in two weeks of the relatively young season, Patino has already been named Conference USA Offensive Player of the Week twice.
He has helped FIU get off to a 3-0-2 start, including a 3-0 win at Ohio State. Patino scored against the Buckeyes and was named MVP of the Wolstein Classic that also included FIU’s 1-1 tie against James Madison.
And yes, Patino scored in that game as well.
