Andrew Nelson Named CCC Men’s Soccer Offensive Player of the Week

SPRINGFIELD, Mass.- Sophomore Andrew Nelson (Burtonsville, Md.) of the Eastern Nazarene College men's soccer team has been selected as the Commonwealth Coast Conference Offensive Player of the Week, as announced by the league office Tuesday.

Nelson netted four goals to lead the Lions to a pair of victories to open the 2015 campaign last week.

In Eastern Nazarene's season-opening 5-0 win over Lesley, the sophomore striker notched his first collegiate hat trick.

Nelson buried the opening goal in the Lions' 4-2 victory at Colby-Sawyer to cap off the week.

An All-Commonwealth Coast Conference second team selection a year ago, Nelson has recorded 11 career tallies for the Lions.

Eastern Nazarene will seek its third-consecutive win September 8 as it travels to take on Wheelock.
