Kade Black
LOCK HAVEN — After scoring five goals last week, Lock Haven men’s soccer midfielder Kade Black, an Altoona Area High School graduate, was named the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Western Division Athlete of the Week, the conference office announced on Monday.
Black’s award marked the fourth PSAC West Weekly Honor this season and the second on the offensive side of the ball.
Black had a four-goal game against Pitt-Johnstown, which entered the game with the best record in the conference. Black tied a 24-year-old record at Lock Haven for the most goals in a game.
Lock Haven downed the Mountain Cats, 7-0, and Black’s goals (four) and points (eight) are the most in a single game in the PSAC this season.
Black also scored the lone goal in a 1-1 tie against current No. 1 seed Gannon.
Black is a junior at Lock Haven majoring in Health Science.
