JON BEAVER OF OGLETHORPE UNIVERSITY, a senior goalkeeper from Knoxville, Tenn., has been selected as the SCAC Men's Soccer Defensive Player-of-the-Week for matches played from Monday, September 26 through Sunday, October 2.

Beaver, who battled a rib injury all week in practice, came in cold as the substitute goalkeeper when starter Frank Petersen received a red card and immediately stopped a penalty kick. Less than five minutes later Beaver was called upon again facing his second penalty kick and again came up huge with the save in a 3-1 conference opener win against Austin College. Beaver played the final 25 minutes off the bench recording three saves and stopping two penalty kicks.
