As the fall season winds down, the weekly performances of Cougar athletes continue to shine in the UMAC. Three student-athletes were named players of the week in the UMAC for November 3. Matt Privratsky (football/Walker, Minn.) Privratsky boosted Minnesota-Morris over Macalester as he kicked a 37-yard-field goal with a 1:04 in the fourth quarter to give the Cougars a 3-0 win. Brent Diggs (men's soccer/Champlin, Minn.) Diggs helped Minnesota-Morris fend off Presentation, finishing his final regular season UMAC contest with a hat trick and an assist. He completed the 2009 campagin as the Cougars' all-time leading scorer and the UMAC's leading scorer for the 2nd consecutive season. Greg Borchers (men's soccer/Westminster, Colo.) Borchers captained a backline that allowed one goal versus Presentation and altogether nine goals in 20 games this season.
