Quincy University senior forward Grant Ellison (O’Fallon, Ill./St. Dominic) is the Great Lakes Valley Conference Men’s Soccer Player of the Week. Ellison scored both game-winners for the Hawks as they posted two conference wins on the weekend.

In Quincy’s 1-0 win over visiting UW-Parkside on Friday night, Ellison tallied the lone goal of the contest in the 85th minute on an assist from Ryan Seifert.

He returned on Sunday in the Hawks’ 4-1 victory over Lewis to post a pair of goals. He scored the eventual game-winning goal in the 10th minute of the match on a penalty kick and later added an insurance goal as he headed home a feed from Jordan Roberts in the 89th minute. Ellison also assisted on Jeff Vaninger’s goal in the 83rd minute that put the Hawks up 3-1.

For the week, Ellison finished with three goals, one assist and seven points. He had both game-winning goals on the week, his second and third of the season.

Ellison leads Quincy with seven goals and 15 points. He currently leads the league in game-winning goals, is tied for first in the GLVC in goals scored and ranks second in points.

Quincy (4-1-1) is 3-0-1 in the GLVC this season and one of two unbeaten teams in the league. The Hawks will travel to Saint Joseph’s and Indianapolis this weekend.

Other top performers in the GLVC last week included Drury’s Jack Mathis, Indianapolis’ Ryan Barnett, Lewis’ Cristhian Ramirez, Missouri S&T’s Peter Vaccaro, Northern Kentucky’s Tommy Barrick and Rockhurst’s Paolo Scoppola.
