AIKEN, S.C. – The Hutson-Etherredge Companies and Auto-Owners Insurance USCA Student-Athlete of the Week is men's soccer standout Rafael Reno.

Reno, a senior from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, guided the Pacers to an undefeated week.

The newcomer accounted for three points in the victory over preseason PBC favorite Clayton State.

Reno got the starting nod and found Frankie Martinez for the match-tying goal in the 66^th minute.

At the 76:21 mark, Reno blasted an attempt past the keeper for what turned out to be the match-winning score.

The Hutson-Etherredge Companies and Auto-Owners Insurance USCA Athletic Department Student-Athlete of the Week honors one student-athlete each week from an in-season sport for their hard work and effort.
