TWO SAINTS GAIN GNAC WEEKLY HONORS
Oct. 13, 2010
BOSTON, Mass. - Emmanuel junior goalkeeper Patrick Froass (Oneida, N.Y.) and sophomore midfielder Andres Rocha (West Orange, Conn.) were named to the GNAC weekly awards list, thanks to their outstanding efforts for the men's soccer team last week.
Froass helped lead the Saints to a 2-2 tie with UMass-Dartmouth, stopping 12 of the Corsairs' 14 shots on net and preventing any of the 11 corner kicks from becoming scoring chances for UMass-Dartmouth.
Rocha led the Saints' offensive attack last week, notching two goals on three shots for four points. Rocha's first goal came on a long range shot against UMD that soared over the goalie's hands and into the back of the net. His second tally brought Emmanuel back to within one score against Lasell.
