Greensboro, N.C. -- North Carolina forward Ryan Kneipper and Virginia forward Alecko Eskandarian shared this week's Atlantic Coast Conference Men's Soccer Co-Player of the Week honor after leading their respective teams to a 2-0 record this past week.

Kneipper, a senior from Dallas, Texas, scored the game-winner vs. No. 11 Saint Louis with just three seconds left in the second half of a 1-1 game. On the week, Kneipper recorded a goal in the Tar Heels first win over Akron and accounted for both goals against No. 11 Saint Louis.

Eskandarian, a junior Montvale, N.J., native recorded seven points to lead Virginia to wins over No. 20 Kentucky and Rhode Island. His top performance came against the Wildcats as he tallied two goals for four points. For his efforts, Eskandarian was named the MVP of the tournament.
