ATLANTA, Ga. - Following his clean sheet to pick up the Majors first conference win on Saturday, senior Stephen Andrieu was named the Southern Athletic Association Defensive Player of the Week.
Early in the first half, the Warriors found a crack in the Major defense and looked to take the early lead. However, Andrieu came out of his position and made one of the plays of the game with a sliding save that knocked the ball out of play and kept the game scoreless.
Andrieu picked up two saves on the evening and halted many offensive opportunities by Hendrix. This season, Andrieu has been terrific with 38 saves in nine contest while only allowing 1.60 goals per game. He also has two clean sheets on the season.
For the Majors, this is their first conference player of the week since Dylan Broussard in 2009.
The Majors hit the road this weekend as they will take on the Centre Colonels on Friday at 7 p.m. EST in SAA play.
