Francis claimed the award after his phenomenal performance against NJCAA Division I foe No. 9 LSU Eunice. The freshman shot-stopper played 110 minutes in goal in a 0-0 draw against the Bengals, making seven saves along the way.

Francis is the second Wildcat student-athlete to be recognized by the MACCC in as many weeks. Last week, women’s soccer’s Aníta Guðmundsdóttir (Kópavogur, Iceland.; Flensborg) claimed the award after making 12 saves against then No. 2 Holmes.
