Justin Gonzales, Men's Soccer

Justin Gonzales has been named the North Georgia Athlete of the Week after leading the men’s soccer team over the weekend against some of the best teams in the country. The Saints put a lid on their three-game home stand over the weekend, hosting Nova Southeastern on Friday evening before welcoming the University of Tampa town on Sunday afternoon, the number one team in the country. Gonzales provided the fireworks on Friday, scoring the game’s first goal in the 7th minute, his first goal in a North Georgia uniform, before adding an assist in the 82nd minute to seal the deal in a 2-0 victory over the Sharks.  The Charleston, South Carolina, native leads the Saints in shots, points, shots on goal, and game winning goals. Gonzales will look to lead the Saints’ offensive on the road this Wednesday as they travel to Lenoir-Rhyne to tangle with the Bears.
