RICHMOND, Va. (Sept. 26, 2022) – Drexel senior Harrison Coron, Hofstra junior Wessel Speel, and Delaware freshman Sam Donnellan have been selected as Colonial Athletic Association weekly award recipients in men’s soccer for their performances over the past week.
 
OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Harrison Coron, Drexel
Senior | Midfielder | Malvern, Pa. / Bishop Shanahan
Coron tied the CAA single-game scoring record with four goals in Drexel’s 5-0 win over Charleston. The four-goal haul for Coron doubled his career scoring output and moved the Dragons into a five-team logjam with seven CAA points – two back of league-leading Elon.
 
DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Wessel Speel, Hofstra
Junior | Goalkeeper | Utrecht, The Netherlands / St. Bonifatius College
Speel posted a pair of clean sheets in Hofstra’s 1-0-1 week that included a win over Binghamton and scoreless draw at William & Mary. The junior from The Netherlands turned aside three shots in both contests as the Pride ran its unbeaten streak to five.
 
ROOKIE OF THE WEEK
Sam Donnellan, Delaware
Freshman | Forward | Newcastle, Australia
Donnellan repeats as Rookie of the Week after scoring a key goal to help Delaware earn its first point of CAA play. The Australian freshman’s 73rd-minute strike pulled the Blue Hens in front before earning a draw against UNCW, which entered the day atop the table.
