SPARTANBURG, S.C. ? UNC Greensboro’s Thomas Campbell has been named the Southern Conference Men’s Soccer Player of the Week after scoring three goals in two league matches last week.
A junior from Middletown, N.J., Campbell scored his first goal of the week on Wednesday night against 22nd-ranked Furman, giving the Spartans (5-4-2, 1-2-0) an early 1-0 advantage. Campbell then added a pair of scores in a 4-0 shutout over Wofford on Saturday to help UNCG to its first SoCon win of the season. He also assisted on the game-winning goal versus the Terriers by finding teammate Tebatso Manyama just 71 seconds into the match.
