LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- UCLA redshirt freshman Eric Goldenberg (Ft. Lauderdale, FL/St. Thomas Aquinas HS) was named the MPSF/Kap7 Newcomer of the Week today as announced by the league.
He scored four goals on four shots in two wins as the Bruins tied their school record of 50 consecutive victories (Oct. 1). Goldenberg opened with one goal in an 11-0 win over No. 13 UC Irvine, also adding two field blocks. Then in a 17-4 win over Claremont-Mudd-Scripps, he tied his season-high with a game-high three goals while adding one steal. This is Goldenberg's first career MPSF honor.
The Bruins will have a chance to break the UCLA record and tie the all-time NCAA record of 51 (Stanford, 1985-87) at No. 4 Pacific on Oct. 8.
Also Nominated: Mikey Williams (CAL); Thomas Dunstan (USC).
