SAINT PAUL, Minn. – The Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (UMAC) revealed its weekly award winners in an announcement Monday, and the Yellowjackets swept the men's soccer category.
 
Junior Josh Bellamy (High Wycombe, England/FAB Football Academy) and senior Nicolai Stokker (Klokkarstua, Norway/St. Hallvard) collected Men's Defensive and Offensive Player of the Week honors, respectively, for their performances last week.
 
Bellamy has been a key member of the Yellowjacket backline, which has only allowed eight goals in 13 total matches. This past week, UWS did not allow a single goal in three matches. Additionally, Bellamy found the back of the net on six occasions, most notably scoring a hat trick in a 6-0 route of St. Scholastica. Bellamy opened the scoring for the 'Jackets in the sixth minute against Crown to earn the 3-0 victory, as well as contributing two goals and an assist in a 6-0 victory against the Cougars of Minnesota Morris.
 
Stokker had a breakout week for the Yellowjackets, notching his second assist against Crown. During the match against St. Scholastica, he tallied his first goal of the season in the 10th minute to give the 'Jackets a 2-0 lead. Stokker also contributed two assists throughout the match. Versus Minnesota Morris, he opened the scoring in the sixth minute courtesy of a Bellamy assist and scored again in the 64th minute.
 
The Yellowjackets (9-2-2, 7-1-0 UMAC) are back in action Wednesday as they face Northwestern. Kickoff at Reynolds Field is scheduled for 7 p.m.
