Hofstra senior forward Patrick Geraghty (Dublin, Ireland/St. Tiernan’s) and Towson midfielder Peter Johnson (Baltimore, Md./Archbishop Curley) were named the Adidas America East Player and Rookie of the Week, respectively, for the week ending September 30.

Geraghty had a hand in both Hofstra goals in the Pride's 2-1 win over Villanova on Wednesday. Geraghty used his skill on free kicks, scoring on a 25-yard direct kick in the first half to give Hofstra a 1-0 lead and assisting on the game-winning goal on another direct kick with 3:03 left in regulation.

Johnson scored the first points of his college career in the Tigers’ 5-0 win over Iona College on Wednesday. He assisted on Alfonso DeMares’ go-ahead goal late in the first half that broke a scoreless tie and also scored at 74:47.
