For the second time in his career, Calvin College senior midfielder Scott
Hooker has been named MIAA Offensive Player of the Week in men's soccer.
Hooker, a senior from Hudsonville (Unity Christian HS), scored twice last week
in leading the Knights to a pair of wins that kept them in a first-place tie in
the MIAA with Hope heading into the season’s final week.
He scored the game’s only goal in a 1-0 victory over Olivet, then scored an
insurance goal on a penalty kick in a 2-0 win over Alma. Hooker is being
honored as Player of the Week for the first time this season and second time in
his career.
