Senior defender Alex Kozdron of the University of Scranton men's soccer team has earned Peggy's Scranton Athlete of the Week honors, tallying a goal and two assists for four points during a 1-0-1 week for the Royals.

Kozdron got the week started on Wednesday by scoring the Royals' only goal in a 1-1 draw at Misericordia. On Saturday, in Scranton's Landmark Conference opener, he set up two goals, both on corner kicks, as the Royals beat Susquehanna 4-1 at Weiss Field.

It is the first time Kozdron has received the weekly honor in his career.

Kozdron and the Royals are back in action Wednesday night, when they host Alvernia University at Weiss Field with a 7:00 p.m. kickoff.
