Men's Soccer Player of the Week - November 5, 2012
Chris Lerner
Chris Lerner
Amherst College
Senior • Defender • Canton, Mass.

Lerner continued to anchor the nation’s top-ranked defense over the weekend, as the Lord Jeffs secured their second straight NESCAC title. In addition to his outstanding work on the defensive end, the senior also helped create both goals in Amherst’s 2-0 triumph over top seeded Williams on Sunday. After setting up a Jae Heo header with a long cross into the box just over a minute into the contest, he set the stage for James Mooney’s insurance goal with a long throw-in from the right sideline in the 16th minute. Lerner and the Amherst defense have posted 15 shutouts while limiting opponents to just two goals this year.
