Nick Jones Named UAA Men’s Soccer Offensive Player of the Week

Emory University midfielder Nick Jones was named the University Athletic Association’s (UAA) Offensive Player of the Week for men’s soccer, based on his performance during the Eagles’ NCAA Tournament game against Lynchburg College.

Jones scored the only Emory goal during the Eagles 2-1 loss to Lynchburg College in the second round of the NCAA Division III Men’s Soccer Championships.  The sophomore midfielder gave Emory a 1-0 lead in the 52^nd minute, scoring his third goal of the season with a header off a pass from Adam Waxman. 

Despite his efforts, Emory’s season came to a close on Sunday, as the 12^th-ranked Eagles finished the year with a 14-3-2 record.
