KILROY NAMED GOALIE OF THE WEEK AGAIN
HOLMBERG NAMED PLAYER OF THE WEEK

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (Nov. 7, 2006) -- Alex Kilroy, a senior goalie on the Nazareth College men’s soccer team, has been named Empire 8 Conference Goalie of the Week for the seven-day period that ended Nov. 7, 2006. It marks the fourth time this season that Kilroy has been named E8 Goalie of the Week.

Kilroy, a native and graduate of Spencerport, posted his sixth shutout of the season and 17th of his career in Saturday’s 1-0 victory over RIT in the Empire 8 Conference Championship game. The victory clinched the Golden Flyers a berth in the NCAA tournament for the second straight year. Kilroy was also credited with seven saves in a 1-1 semifinal tie with Ithaca. He saved Ithaca's fifth and final penalty kick to send Nazareth into the conference title game.

A first-team Empire 8 Conference all-star in '06, Kilroy has solidified a strong defense for the Golden Flyers with 102 saves and has a 0.96 goals-against-average.

The Golden Flyers host Geneseo in the first round of the NCAA tournament on Wednesday at 1 p.m.
