Gadbois, Kreps Earn LEC Weekly Honors
Men’s College Soccer

October 27, 2008

GORHAM, Maine -- Two members of the University of Southern Maine men’s soccer team have been recognized by the Little East Conference for their outstanding play during the week of October 20-26.

Junior goalkeeper David Kreps (Agawam, Mass./Wilbraham & Monson) was named the Goalkeeper of the Week for the third time this season, and sophomore defender Adam Gadbois (Brunswick, Maine/Mt. Ararat) was selected as the Defensive Player of the Week. Jonathan Harper, commissioner of the Little East Conference, made the announcements Monday afternoon.
 

Gadbois spearheaded the Huskies’ defense that allowed just five shots on goal in 180 minutes of play. This is the first time that Gadbois has been recognized by the conference with a weekly honor.
Kreps, who was previously named Goalkeeper of the Week on September 22 and October 6, posted two shutouts last week to help the Huskies post a pair of 2-0 victories. He had two saves in the Huskies’ road win at Maine Maritime Academy, and three stops in the team’s win over LEC foe Western Connecticut State University.

In 13 appearances this season, Kreps has fashioned a 1.13 goals against average with an 8-4 record and five shutouts. Gadbois has started all 17 matches he has played scoring one goal.

The Huskies will host Salem State College on Tuesday (3:00 p.m.) for a non-conference match before closing the regular season on Saturday (1:00 p.m.) hosting LEC rival Rhode Island College. The winner of the USM-RIC match will be the top seed in the upcoming LEC championship tournament.
