Men’s Soccer Earns Four ECC Honors as Brown Named Offensive Player of the Week

COLONIA, N.J. – On Monday, the East Coast Conference announced its fourth Men's Soccer Weekly Report of the 2026 season, with four Queens College Knights earning conference recognition for their performances during the week of Sept. 14-20.
 
Sophomore Bradyn Brown was named Offensive Player of the Week after recording a team-best six points during No. 5 Queens' 2-0 week. Brown opened the week with a season-best four-point performance, scoring his second goal and game-winning goal of the season while adding two assists in the Knights' 3-1 victory over No. 6 Wilmington. Brown concluded the week with his third goal of the season as Queens defeated defending ECC Champion Roberts Wesleyan, 3-0, in its ECC opener Saturday afternoon.
 
Senior Anton Mand was named Defensive Player of the Week for the second consecutive week. Mand helped No. 5 Queens complete an undefeated week with victories over No. 6 Wilmington and defending ECC Champion Roberts Wesleyan. Against Wilmington, Mand recorded his first assist of the season, delivering a long ball for Brown to blast home the game-winning goal, while the Knights limited the Wildcats to eight shots over 90 minutes. In the 3-0 ECC-opening victory, Mand and the Knights held Roberts Wesleyan to just two shots overall, none of which were on target.
 
For the third consecutive week, sophomore Stian Haugland earned a spot on the weekly report, earning his first Rookie of the Week honor. Haugland went 2-0 while recording a combined shutout during an undefeated week for No. 5 Queens. Haugland opened the week with three saves as the Knights earned a 3-1 comeback victory over No. 6 Wilmington Wednesday night. In the ECC opener against defending ECC Champion Roberts Wesleyan, Haugland and the Knights held the Redhawks to just two shots overall as Queens earned a 3-0 shutout victory.
 
Sophomore Marko Borovic was named to the Honor Roll for the first time this season. Borovic recorded five points on two goals and one assist during No. 5 Queens' 2-0 week. With Queens trailing Wilmington, 1-0, Borovic tied the contest in the 67th minute with a blast into the top-left corner. Borovic opened ECC play in style, scoring his first game-winning goal of the season with a perfect strike into the top-right corner in the 34th minute against Roberts Wesleyan. He concluded the week with an assist on Taro Aboubakary's third goal of the season as the Knights defeated the defending ECC Champions, 3-0.
