New Haven, Conn. - Junior Lexie Fenn (Oakville, Conn.) and freshman Salah Oumorou (West Haven, Conn.) of the men's soccer team have been named as the Albertus Magnus College Student-Athletes of Week.

Oumorou, who was also named GNAC Corvias Rookie of the Week, tallied two goals and an assist for a total of five points in a 1-0-1 week for the Falcons. The rookie scored a pair of goals, including the eventual game-winner, and tallied his first collegiate assist in a 4-2 win over Lasell on Saturday.
Fenn, who was also named GNAC Corvias Goalkeeper of the Week, stopped a total of 31 shots for a .939 save percentage as well as recorded her second shutout of the fall in a 1-1 for the Falcons.
