Fresh off his first career multi-goal performance last Saturday, sophomore forward Christian Lawal earned Atlantic 10 Player of the Week honors, the league announced Monday.

Lawal provided GW with both an equalizer and a game-winner during the second half of his team’s 2–1, come-from-behind victory over Davidson. GW’s second consecutive win to open A-10 play snapped Davidson’s school-record 16-game home unbeaten streak.

The Pembury, England native has registered three goals on the year, second-most on the team, already matching the offensive output of his rookie season.

The award is the first of Lawal’s career, and the second time a Colonial received the honor this year. Junior forward Garrett Heine, who leads GW with five goals and three assists, earned the accolade on Aug. 31 after netting five points on opening weekend.

Monday’s announcement also marked the first time two Colonials have been honored during the same season since 2011.

GW (4-5-0, 1-0 A-10) looks for its third straight win at Saint Joseph’s on Wednesday at 7 p.m.
