CORVALLIS – Redshirt-sophomore defender Jalen Markey has been named to the Top Drawer Soccer National Team of the Week, the site announced Tuesday morning.
Markey played all 191 minutes for the Oregon State men’s soccer team this weekend, helping the Beavers post a pair of clean sheets to jump out to a 2-0 record at the start of conference play. Markey and fellow sophomore Sam Tweeton anchored an OSU back-line that shut-out UCLA in a 1-0 double-overtime win, as the Beavers recorded their first victory over the Bruins since 2005. Oregon State followed that up by blanking San Diego State in a 2-0 win on Sunday.
