BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana men's soccer freshman Roman Celentano was honored by the Big Ten Conference when the league announced him as the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week on Tuesday afternoon.
Celentano captured his first collegiate shutout in a 0-0 draw against No. 16 Kentucky on Oct. 9. He faced three shots on frame and denied them all. His three saves established a new career-high for a single game. Celentano came up big when defending the UK aerial attack off set pieces.
The Naperville, Ill., native recorded a second-straight clean sheet in the 1-0 Indiana victory over Michigan.
