Tulsa's Alex Meinhard picked up his second American Athletic Conference Rookie of the Week accolade, as announced today by the league office.
Meinhard, a redshirt freshman from Tartu, Estonia, scored the game-winning goal in both contests against Memphis this past week, helping Tulsa add two wins to their record.
In the first game of the week in Tulsa, Meinhard knocked through a penalty kick into the lower right corner in the 55th minute of the game for the 1-0 Tulsa lead. TU went on to win the game, 2-0. In the second game of the week in Memphis, Meinhard recorded the golden goal in the 101st minute as he scored on a counterattack from 12 yards out to give TU a 1-0 double-overtime win.
