Men’s soccer players sweep MIAA Player of the Week awards

Olivet College men's soccer players -- freshman Mike May (Mason) and senior Ryan Scott (Williamston) -- have swept the Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association Player of the Week awards for the first week of the 2007 season. May and Scott were selected as the Offensive and Defensive Player of the Week, respectively.

May scored a goal in each game as the Comets fell to Madonna University, 2-1, and shutout Denison (Ohio) University, 2-0. Scott was the anchor of the defense at the center back position.

Olivet (1-1) returns to action with a pair of home games this weekend. On Friday, the Comets will play Concordia University-Chicago at 5:30 p.m., and on Saturday, they will play Manchester (Ind.) College at 3 p.m.
