FHSU Sports Information Department

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Fort Hays State’s Mauricio Castorino was named the MIAA Men’s Soccer Athlete of the Week on Tuesday (Sept. 29). Castorino was instrumental in a pair of double overtime wins last week for the 11th-ranked Tigers.

Castorino had two goals and two assists for a total of six points over a span of three matches that saw the Tigers go 2-1. He had two game-tying goals for the week, both in matches that FHSU won in double overtime. Both of his assists came on game-winning goals. He found Luan Silva with a bullet pass off a free kick into the box with only six seconds remaining in double overtime against West Texas A&M to lift FHSU 3-2. Then, at Newman, he found Anthony Hernandez a minute and a half into the second overtime period to lift FHSU 2-1. Castorino leads the MIAA in points with 16 for the season.
