WCC honors GU’s Ludwigs

Lars Ludwigs, Gonzaga University’s junior midfielder whose play in two shutout victories was instrumental in the Bulldogs’ first road sweep since 2008, was named the West Coast Conference men’s soccer Player of the Week.

After a 2-0 win over 15th-ranked UC Santa Barbara gave GU its first win over a ranked opponent since 2007, Ludwigs scored the winning goal in the second OT of a 1-0 win at Cal Poly.
