Under Armour Team of the Week Announced
LA GRANDE, Ore. –The Eastern Oregon University men’s soccer team has been named the “Under Armour Team of the Week” for October 15-21, the Cascade Collegiate Conference announced Sunday.
On Homecoming weekend, the Mountaineers secured two crucial wins to lock down a trip to the CCC post season for the first time in program history.
On Friday, EOU downed the No. 10 ranked Corban University Warriors 2-1 at Community Stadium. It was the first loss handed to Corban in the last nine outings. Junior Carlos Solorio netted both goals for the win while senior goalkeeper Aidan Wright had nine saves on the evening.
The Mountaineers kept the momentum going on Sunday with a 2-1 win over Northwest Christian University. The weekend wins guarantee an above .500 record for a squad in only its fourth year of competition.
EOU (9-3-4, 7-2-3 CCC) will be on the road next to face Walla Walla University before heading to the CCC tournament that will begin Nov. 7 in Springfield, Ore.
