OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK | AUDI JEPSON | GREEN BAY | SENIOR | MIDFIELDER | GREEN BAY, WIS.
Audi Jepson found the back of the net twice on Saturday as the Green Bay men's soccer team headed south to take on in-state rival Milwaukee with the Chancellor's Cup on the line. After last year's 1-0 loss to the Panthers, the only way the Phoenix was going to bring the cup back to Titletown was with a victory. Jepson first struck in the 80th minute to put Green Bay on top 1-0, but the Panthers found the equalizer seconds before the clock hit zero to force overtime. Knowing a draw would leave the cup in Milwaukee, Jepson added another goal to his already impressive game resume by netting the game-winner in the 95th minute. Jepson now has four goals on the season and Green Bay is off to its first four-game unbeaten streak since the 2013 campaign.
