Evan Couturier, men鈥檚 soccer goalkeeper and fourth-year science student from Lower Coverdale, New Brunswick, played well in the net when the team went down to 10 men in a loss to St. Francis Xavier University on September 30. He was also named 精童欲女鈥檚 Player of the Game after the match.
"Evan is a warrior and fierce competitor. His shot stopping ability gave us a fighting chance in a game when were down to ten men," said head coach Lewis Page.
Go Panthers Go!
