Trio of Tigers earn AAC weekly awards

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – After scoring both goals in a 2-1, double-overtime win at USF Friday night, Memphis Tigers sophomore midfielder/forward Emanuel Santos has been named the American Athletic Conference Co-Offensive Player of the Week.

Additionally, Tigers junior goalkeeper Parker Lackland and redshirt-sophomore forward/midfielder Ford Hunt earned spots on the conference's Weekly Honor Roll.

Santos scored Memphis' game-winner in the 108th minute to secure the road win at USF, plus the game-tying goal in the 70th minute. He put home the Tigers' 10th corner kick of the match with just minutes remaining to give Memphis the 2-1 win and snap its five-match losing streak.
