TDS Men’s Team of the Week: Sept. 6
There were a number of jaw dropping results over the course of the last week as teams still try to figure out things through the first stages of the season. There were a few freshmen who looked like they already put it together in the second week.
Marquette freshman Luka Prpa had a week for the record books with four goals and four assists from two games. The newcomer was the start of the show from the past week and earned the title as the TDS Player of the Week.
