LOWELL, Mass. – After breaking open the scoring in both matches against UMass and UMBC this past week, senior forward Borna Miklic (Kutina, Croatia) of the UMass Lowell men’s soccer team has been named River Hawk of the Week.
In Tuesday night’s Kennedy Cup matchup, Miklic scored in the 21st minute of action following a scramble in front of the net to put the River Hawks on the board first.
Later in the week, he struck once again against UMBC. In the 34th minute of the conference matchup, Miklic converted off a free kick that curled around the UMBC line into the top left corner.
Miklic has been an offensive weapon for the River Hawks all season, leading the team in multiple categories including goals (four), points (eight), and total shots (19) with 11 being on net.
The "River Hawk of the Week" is chosen in voting by the UMass Lowell Athletic Communications staff. It honors the top athlete, male or female, based on performance during the previous week of competition.
