Freshman Aaron Edwards of the UCLA men's soccer team has been selected the UCLA Student-Athlete of the Week, presented by Ready, for Oct. 11-17.

Edwards scored two goals in the second half to lead UCLA to a 2-1 comeback win over No. 14 Loyola Marymount on Thursday, the first two goals of his collegiate career. Edwards, who has mostly been operating as a right back for the Bruins, scored his first goal when he redirected a cross from the right wing inside the far post for his first goal in the 69th minute. He scored the game-winner in the 83rd on a header off a corner kick.

This is Edwards' first UCLA student-athlete of the week award of the season and of his career.
