MM 11.3: Two Maryland men’s soccer stars take home Big Ten weekly awards

By Max Schaeffer

This past Sunday, Maryland men’s soccer became the second Maryland team this fall to secure a regular-season Big Ten championship. The team’s tie against Indiana secured it the hardware, and as such, two players received weekly honors.

On the attacking side, junior forward Stefan Copetti was named Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week. Copetti bagged the game-tying goal against Indiana that secured Maryland the championship.

On the other side of the field, senior center back Chris Rindov was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week. The former walk-on has been an anchor of the defense all season.
