SEGUIN, Texas -- Following a 11-point performance against Austin College on Sunday and a six goal weekend, Texas Lutheran's Luis Green (Monterrey, Mexico/Smithson Valley) has been recognized by the United Soccer Coaches as the national player of the week on Wednesday (Nov. 5). The announcement comes after Green was named SCAC Offensive Player of the Week on Monday.

Green claims the national honor following an outstanding performance on the road at Austin College - netting the first "glut" in Texas Lutheran Men's Soccer history. Green scored a goal against the University of Dallas on Saturday (3-1 win on Oct. 29) before the record breaking performance on Sunday. Green also added an assist in the match to set a TLU record for most points in a match (11). The five goals are the second most in a match in SCAC history and the 11 points are the third most in a single match. The five goals brings Green's final career tally to 81 goals to finish tied for tenth all-time in NCAA Division-III men's soccer history.

A native of Monterrey, Mexico, Green led the SCAC with 19 goals and 44 points in the regular season.

Texas Lutheran concluded its season with a 6-0 shutout of Austin College to finish their season with an 8-4-5 record.
