Juan Hurtado, Men's Soccer

Juan Hurtado has been named the Moe's Southwest Grill North Georgia Athlete of the Week after leading the Saints to a victory over Harding University over the weekend. Hurtado has played in all seven games for head coach Pat Parris this season, making six starts as a true freshman and logging 542 minutes of action, the second highest on the team.  The native of Cali, Colombia, fired two shots on goal and recorded an assist Friday afternoon as North Georgia put a lid on a three-game losing streak, blanking Harding University 3-0 on the campus of Columbus State University.  The 3-0 victory was the first shutout of the season for the Saints as the defense came up big, allowing just six shots and not a single shot on goal. North Georgia will look to pick up their first Peach Belt Conference victory of the season on Saturday, hosting Lander University as the two league teams battle for the sixth time in school history.
