LANCASTER, Pa. - McDaniel College men's soccer senior Noah Rodriguez was named the Centennial Conference Defensive Player of the Week on Tuesday.

It is the second career honor for Rodriguez who was also named defensive player of the week as a freshman back on Sept. 27, 2022.

The Green Terror have had eight conference player of the week selections over the last four seasons, including seven on defense. Junior Tate Roth earned the honor three times last season while Austin Heid received it once in 2023 and Rodriguez and Tyler Reid were each honored in 2022.

Justin Winborne-Freeman was the lone offensive recipient back on Sept. 13, 2022.

Rodriguez was a key member of the defense last week that allowed just 11 shots, including two on goal as McDaniel remained undefeated on the season with two more shutout victories. The team has not allowed a goal in five games this season, extending its shutout streak to 450 minutes while outscoring its opponents, 12-0.

The Green Terror allowed just four shots in a 3-0 win at Albright on Wednesday before limiting Randolph to seven, with two on goal Saturday. In addition, Rodriguez also added two assists in a 3-0 win.

With five-straight wins to open the season, McDaniel is off to its best start since 2022 when it also started the year with five consecutive wins, including four shutouts. The best start to a season in program history came in 2019 when the team started the season with nine consecutive victories.

The Green Terror host Goucher later this afternoon at the Soccer Complex. Kickoff is at 4 p.m.
