Putting the first points on the board and giving MSU a 1-0 lead, Chapman scored his first goal of the season and fifth of his career. Returning to the game twice after getting stitched up and having to change jerseys on two separate occasions, Keener headed a goal into the back of the net off a corner kick from Ryan Thelen to put the Spartans up 2-0 in the 75th minute. It was Keener s first goal of the season, fourth of his career. NATIONAL SPOTLIGHT Making a mark on the national scene, Fatai Alashe was named National Player of the Week on Tuesday by TopDrawerSoccer.com. With Kevin Cope currently out of the backline, midfielder/defender Fatai Alashe expanded his position on the field and lent his skills where the Spartans needed them most. The veteran Spartan put MSU on the board with a goal at No. 3 Creighton on Sept. 24 and added an assist in the home victory over North Illinois on Sept. 28. CONFERENCE RECOGNITION For the second consecutive week, goalkeeper Zach Bennett was named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week as announced by the conference office on Sept. 23. Bennett s career-high eight saves helped the Spartans to their secondstraight shutout this past Tuesday with a 1-0 home win against Bowling Green. Bennett is currently first in the Big Ten with a.875 Sv%, second in goals against average (0.55), shutouts (5) and shutouts per game (0.71 avg.) and third in saves (28) and saves per game (4.5 avg.). In the win against the Falcons, Bennett recorded a career-high eight saves on the day en route to earning his fourth shutout of the season, seventh of his career. The sophomore is also No. 7 in the nation in save percentage and 17th in the country in goals against average. It is the third weekly honor for the Plano, Texas, native who has played in every minute of the 2013 season. 2013 SPARTAN MEN S SOCCER WWW.MSUSPARTANS.COM

All-time, the Spartans own a 55-44-15 record against the current members of the league including taking down 2012 Horizon League Tournament Champion Cleveland State in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. PRESEASON HONORS As the reigning Big Ten Tournament Champions, MSU entered the season ranked second in the 2013 Big Ten preseason coaches poll with 21 returning Spartans. Three members of the team were recognized by the Big Ten coaches as redshirt senior Kevin Cope and juniors Adam Montague and Fatai Alashe were named to the 2013 Players to Watch list. Ranked No. 4 in the Big Ten by TopDrawerSoccer.com, Kevin Cope returns for his final season as a team captain for the Spartans. He was recognized on TopDrawerSoccer.com s Preseason Best XI second team and is ranked No. 22 of the top-100 Division I players. Adam Montague, also a team captain, was ranked sixth in the conference by TopDrawerSoccer.com s heading into the 2013 season after posting a goal in every game of the 2012 Big Ten Tournament. He is also No. 47 in the country on TopDrawerSoccer.com s top-100. PLAYER APPRECIATION Following his first goal scored of the 2013 season in the Spartans shutout win over Northern Illinois, sophomore Jay Chapman was named Big Ten Player of the Week by College Soccer Madness on Oct. 1. He recorded five shots and a game-winning goal to put the Spartans on the board over the Huskies, and earned an assist in the 2-2 draw against No. 3 Creighton. After recording his first career goal in his inaugural start as a Spartan, freshman Dewey Lewis received the same honor on Sept. 2. Lewis stole the ball away from a Bronco defender and beat the keeper to earn an unassisted goal. SPARTAN FIRSTS In addition to Dewey Lewis first career goal scored against Western Michigan in his Spartan debut, redshirt senior Ryan Thelen scored his first career goal on Sept. 6 against Oregon State. The game-winning goal was scored off Thelen s seventh corner kick of the game, hooked into the back right corner of the net to give the Spartans a 1-0 victory. With the win, MSU improved to 2-0 which marked the first time the Spartans started with a two-game shutout since 2007 under former head coach Joe Baum. It was the first 2-0 start to the season for head coach Damon Rensing and the first time in the Rensing era that the Spartans had not allowed a goal in the first two games SENIOR STANDOUT Redshirt senior Kevin Cope was chosen as one of 30 candidates for the 2013 men s collegiate soccer 2013 Senior CLASS Award, presented by Premier Sports Management.

MSU men s soccer program to be a candidate for the award established for the sport in 2007, as 2008 captain Doug DeMartin was in the top-30 his senior season. An acronym for Celebrating Loyalty and Achievement for Staying in School, the Senior CLASS Award focuses on notable achievements in four areas of excellence - community, classroom, character and competition. The two-time captain has already made a huge impact on the pitch for the Spartans this season. Recording one career goal prior to 2013, Cope has scored two goals in MSU s three games thus far. STOUT SCHEDULE In true Spartan fashion, MSU is slated for another tough season of quality non-conference games in addition to a challenging Big Ten conference schedule. Seven NCAA Tournament teams from a year ago, including National Champion Indiana and semifinalist Creighton, help make up the 2013 slate. AT THE HELM Head Coach Damon Rensing is in his fifth season as head coach, but embarks on his 15th on the Spartan sideline after a standout career for the Spartans (1993-96). Rensing is 48-34-11 (.524) in his five seasons as head coach, but MSU boasts a 127-75-22 (.616) overall record with Rensing on the sidelines, including 11 or more wins in nine seasons. Kylie Stannard and Ben Pirmann serve as the Spartan assistants. Pirmann is also a former Spartan letterwinner, and previously served the program as the volunteer assistant before returning to his alma mater after a coaching stint at Western Michigan.
