University of Pennsylvania men’s soccer team player Connor Dawson was named the Ivy League Defensive Player of the Week. The sophomore defender scored the match-winning goal in a 1-0 victory over Yale and helped lead a strong defense that limited the Bulldogs to only three shots on goal. This win secured a piece of the Ivy League regular-season title for the third consecutive season for the Quakers, who are now 6-0 in conference play. Dawson’s performance earned him his first collegiate weekly award.
The Red and Blue team will close out the regular season by facing Princeton in a crucial match to determine the number one seed in the upcoming Ivy League Tournament. The game is scheduled for Saturday at 2 p.m. as Penn looks to continue their success and advance in the tournament.
This recognition highlights Dawson’s contributions to the team’s success and his leadership on the field. The University of Pennsylvania men’s soccer team continues to excel in the Ivy League and aims to maintain their winning streak as they prepare for the tournament. Fans are eagerly anticipating the upcoming match against Princeton and the team’s performance as they push for another championship title. #FightOnPenn.
