NEW YORK – Men's soccer junior midfielder Simen Hestnes was named to the BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll on Monday for his efforts in the Musketeers' come-from-behind road victory at No. 22 Boston College last Monday.
Hestnes, the 2016 NEC Player of the Year, has been an impact transfer for XU since coming over from LIU Brooklyn in the offseason and earns his first weekly award from the conference. The Oslo, Norway native scored Xavier's first goal and assisted on the equalizer as the Musketeers won 3-2 against BC after falling behind 2-0 in the first half.
