AMHERST, Mass. – Lauren Bonavita of women's soccer and Jordan Mahoney of football earned UMass Student-Athlete of the Week honors, presented by UMassFive on Tuesday afternoon.

Bonavita scored three goals in a pair of league matches for the Minutewomen last week, including two in a 3-1 win over Davidson on Sunday at Rudd Field. The forward added a goal in the eighth minute of a road draw at VCU to open A-10 play before adding two more against the Wildcats to tie her for the league lead in goals with eight.

Mahoney tallied seven total tackles, including a team-high six solo, against Stony Brook on Saturday. He recorded his first career interception that was returned for a 94-yard touchdown, making it the fourth longest interception return for a touchdown in UMass football history.
