Kel Markert, senior goalkeeper for Alabama-Huntsville, was named the Gulf South Conference Men’s Soccer Defender of the Week on Tuesday.
Markert posted a clean sheet in a 2-0 win against Georgia Southwestern while not allowing a goal in 45 minutes in the second half against Shorter University.
Last season, Markert was named the GSC Defender of the Week twice (10/11 and 11/1) and recorded six shutouts on the year, helping his team to a GSC-leading eight shutouts on the year.
