The men’s basketball team kicked off their season with a 84-72 win over Wesley College in an exhibition contest.
Sophomore’s Collin Stewart and Chris Brady led the Hawks with 14 points a piece, while the blue and white spread the ball around effectively with seven players scoring at least eight points. Senior forward Brice Kofane had a solid debut for the Hawks, with eight points on 3-5 shooting as well as a team leading six rebounds.
After leading by two at the half, MU went on a 31-14 run to start the second half and put the game away. The Hawks face a tough task when they open their regular this Friday, Nov. 14, as they travel to West Virginia to take on the Mountaineers, a member of the Big 12 Conference. Tip-off is set for 7 pm.
The men’s soccer team had two players receive weekly honors this past Monday. Sophomore goalie Eric Klenofsky was named the MAAC Defensive Player of the Week, and freshman midfielder Andrew Gee was voted as the MAAC Rookie of the Week.
Klenofsky posted two shutouts in the Hawks wins over St. Peter’s and Sienna, while Gee recorded his first career goal and assist in the teams quarterfinal win. This is familiar territory for Klenofsky, as it is his sixth time receiving the honor, but new for Gee, who was given the honor for the first time in his career.
