KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Fort Hays State senior Michael Cole was named the MIAA Men’s Soccer Athlete of the Week on Tuesday (Oct. 25), helping the Tigers go 2-0 in non-conference play last week. Cole finished the week with three goals and two assists for a total of eight points.

Cole recorded the first hat trick of his career with three goals and became the fourth player in program history to accomplish the feat in a 7-0 win at Southern Nazarene. He added an assist in the match to set a new school record for points in a match with seven. In the 3-1 win at Oklahoma Baptist, he provided the assist on the game-tying goal before FHSU went on to score twice more in the match.
