NESCAC Weekly Honor Roll
Amherst – Finn Hoefer (New York, N.Y.) scored twice in the Mammoths’ 3-3 tie with No. 18 Tufts in Amherst's only game of the week. The sophomore leads the team with three goals this season. 
 
Bates – Rookie Finn Coburn (Scarborough, Maine) scored his team-leading third goal of the season to help Bates beat Maine Maritime Academy, 1-0, on Wednesday. 
 
Bowdoin – First-year midfielder Noah Duffy (Gladwyne, Pa.) netted his first-career goal for the Polar Bears to help No. 10 nationally ranked Bowdoin to a 1-1 draw with Endicott on Thursday. The draw moved Bowdoin to a 4-1-3 record overall. 
 
Colby – Goalkeeper Jackson Magee (Brookline, Mass.) recorded back-to-back shutouts in 180 minutes between the pipes. At No. 2 Middlebury, Magee anchored the Mules' defense with a six-save effort, including four key second-half stops, to secure a 0–0 draw. It marked just the second time this season the Panthers have been held scoreless. The junior made two critical saves in a 1–0 shutout victory over Rivier the following day. After stopping all eight shots on goal he faced in two full matches, Magee has four shutouts on the season. 
 
Conn. College – In the Camels’ only game of the week at Williams, senior midfielder Marco Perugini (Medway, Mass.) scored Conn. College’s only goal of the afternoon in a 2-1 setback to the Ephs.
 
Hamilton - Junior Troy Miller (Marlborough, Conn.) scored two goals last week including the game-winner in a 1-0 victory against Wesleyan. Miller added an assist for a five-point week. Senior Peter Montesano Scheibe (Groton, Mass.) recorded shutouts in a 3-0 win at Ithaca and the triumph against Wesleyan. Montesano Scheibe made seven saves against Ithaca and added three stops against the Cardinals. The clean sheets were the fifth and sixth of the senior's career.

Middlebury – In a 2-0-1 week for the Panthers, Sam Dolan (Manhattan, N.Y.) played 170 minutes to help anchor a Middlebury backline. The Panther defense allowed just two shots on goal in a 3-1 win over RPI. Dolan played 43 minutes as Middlebury limited Colby to two shots on net in a 0-0 draw in the annual Michael P. Russell '98 Memorial Match. The junior defender saved his best performance for last, logging two helpers in his first start of the season in an 8-0 victory over Maine Maritime. He also contributed to a defense that held the Mariners to a season-low four shots. 
 
Trinity – In Trinity's only game of the week, rookie Charles Desautels (Alexandria, Va.) potted the game-winning goal for the Bantams in a 1-0 victory at Bates. The victory gave Trinity its first victory in Lewiston since 2015, and with six wins, the Bantams have reached a new single-season high under Head Coach Methembe Ndlovu, and their most wins in a season since 2017.
 
Tufts – Xavier Canfin (Tarrytown, N.Y.) recorded a goal and an assist to help the Jumbos post a 2-0-1 record last week. In a 2-1 upset victory over No. 5 Babson, Canfin dished out an assist on the eventual game-winning marker. In a 4-0 shutout at Hamilton, the senior scored the Jumbos’ first goal. 
 
Wesleyan – Yousuf Saeed (Houston, Texas) scored or assisted on all three Wesleyan goals in a 3-1 midweek non-conference win at Western Connecticut.
