Alex Lofgren had a goal and two assists last weekend.
LAKE FOREST, IL - Lake Forest College men’s soccer player Alex Lofgren (Glenview, IL/Glenview South) was named the Midwest Conference Defensive Performer of the Week Tuesday (September 14). Lofgren helped the Foresters to a pair of victories over conference opponents.

On Saturday (September 11), the junior sweeper helped the Foresters hold Knox College to only four shots and one goal. Lofgren also tallied an assist, his career first, on the second goal of the game in a 2-1 Lake Forest College win.

Lofgren got his second career assist on Sunday (September 12) against Ripon College. The assist came after he scored his first goal of the season by heading in a corner kick, giving Lofgren his first career three-point game. Defensively, Lofgren and the Foresters allowed the Red Hawks no goals in the game, giving them their first shut out of the year.

MWC Performers of the Week are selected by the conference sports information directors.
