Men’s soccer continues success, moves to No. 15 ranking

Following Marshall University’s men’s soccer two wins against Loyola Marymount (4-1) and San Diego State (5-1) in California, Marshall redshirt senior goalkeeper Paulo Pita earned Conference USA Defensive Player of the Week and redshirt freshman forward Milo Yosef received Conference USA Offensive Player of the Week.

“Paulo is a good representative of the whole defense,” Head Coach Chris Grassie said. “He did a really great job over the last three matches. He didn’t have a ton to do, but he had some important saves to make, and I think that was a function of the defense in front of him, but he had a couple big saves to make in both games and it kept us ticking.
