RUSSELLVILLE, Ark. – The Great American Conference named Kieran Brown as the GAC/MIAA Men's Soccer Goalkeeper of the Week on Tuesday (Oct. 25) for his efforts in a pair of shutouts for Fort Hays State last week.

Brown helped the Tigers knock off then No. 19 ranked Southern Nazarene 1-0 and play to a scoreless draw at Northeastern State. He recorded a total of 12 saves for the week with four against SNU and eight at NSU. He and the Tiger defense held Northeastern State scoreless to gain a draw despite the Tigers playing down a man over the final 20 minutes of the contest in Tahlequah.

Brown now has five shutouts in goal this season and holds an .813 save percentage for the season. He joins the late Austin Madubuike of Newman and George Robinson of Rogers State (Co-Offensive Players of the Week), along with Scott Woods of Northeastern State (Defensive Player of the Week) as the honorees from the conference office.
