Men's Soccer's Sam Ashton Lands on AAC Weekly Honor Roll

MEMPHIS, Tennessee – Memphis men's soccer senior forward has been named to the American Athletic Conference's Weekly Honor Roll, as announced by the league office Monday afternoon.

The nod marks the first weekly award in his career. Ashton earned the accolade after knocking home the game-winning PK against Milwaukee on Friday. Tied at 1-1 in the 72 minute, the forward earned the penalty, then finished the attempt cleanly for his second goal of the season.

Ashton's award marks the fifth award winner of the young season for Memphis, each by a different player, as the Tigers have found impact players all over the field.
