SAINT PAUL, Minn. – For the week of Oct. 14-20, two Yellowjackets were featured on the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (UMAC) weekly award list, the league announced Tuesday.
 
Senior forward Mya Holmquist (Buffalo, Minn./Buffalo) from the Yellowjacket women's soccer team was voted the conference's offensive player of the week, while freshman distance runner Maverick Hoogland (Catawba, Wis./Phillips) from the Yellowjacket men's cross country team picked up runner of the week accolades.
