Junior Men’s Soccer Midfielder Michael Hewes is our DP Sports Player of the Week after an impressive performance during two weekend matches.
Hewes scored four goals in both games, two in each, making this a double-doubles weekend for him. He also received the Ivy League Player of the Week award, the second consecutive time that a Quaker has taken home the award, as second striker Stas Korzeniowski earned it last week.
On Friday, the West Chester, Pa. Native scored two goals in 52 minutes against Mount St. Mary’s, while the rest of the Quaker roster scored three goals. After 90 minutes, Hewes ‘two goals contributed to the Quakers’ 5-0 exclusion at Mount St. Mary’s.
Two days later, Hewes scored one of Penn’s four first-half goals that put the Rossoblu 4-0 up at the end of the period. Fairleigh Dickinson responded with a goal in the second half and Hewes reacted with his second goal of the night, accompanied by another second-year Brandon Curran.
The night ended with Penn securing a 6-1 win over the Knights, taking his season record to 4-1-1. Scoring six goals was not only part of Hewes’ double brace, but he also scored the most goals scored in a match with manager Brian Gill at the helm, and the first time the Quakers have scored six goals at home. since 2008.
