Clayton State’s Lukic
earns PBC Defensive Player of the Week for men’s soccer
Junior defender paced Lakers
to ninth shutout of the season last week
  MORROW,
Ga. – October 28, 2009 – The Peach Belt Conference released
its weekly honors on Wednesday for men’s soccer, and the Clayton
State Lakers were included in this weeks selections. Clayton State’s
Igor Lukic was honored as the PBC Defensive Player of the Week.
Lukic, a junior from Sabac, Serbia, is the third different Clayton
State player to earn PBC Defensive Player of the Week honors this
season. Sophomore Roger Boniface was selected on Sept. 5, and senior
Liam Brown was honored on Oct. 13.
Since being inserted into the starting line-up on Sept. 30, Lukic
has helped pace Clayton State on a current seven-game unbeaten
streak. During that span, the Lakers have allowed only one goal in
the process, and Clayton State leads the PBC in shutouts with nine.
With three starters on defense out last Wednesday at Georgia
Southwestern, Lukic took the lead. He spearheaded Clayton State’s
defensive effort in limiting the Hurricanes to only two shots for
the entire game in a 3-0 Laker shutout victory.
Clayton State (10-4-1, 5-1-1 PBC) closes out the regular season on
Saturday at 1 p.m. with a tremendous showdown at rival Lander. A
possible PBC regular season championship will be on the line. |
