Lyle Gifford has been named the Student-Athlete of the week for August 24-30, 2015.
The men’s soccer team has started the season off 3-0 and Gifford is an integral reason for their success. In the #11 Night Hawks’ 3-0 victory over the defending NAIA National champion and top-ranked Davenport University, Gifford pressed the Panthers defense allow tactical errors for DU, opening the field for his teammates. The Oxfordshire, England, native continues to wreak havoc on opposing defenses with swift and timely passes. In Thomas’ 2-1 victory this past weekend over Middle Georgia State, Gifford tallied two assists during the match.
Lyle is a business management major.
