WINTHROP, Mass. – Mitchell College sophomore Gabe Ansani (Trumbull, Conn.) has been named Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) Player of the Week in men's soccer, the conference announced Monday afternoon.
It marks the first time in his collegiate career that Ansani has earned the honor, as well as the first time a Mitchell men's soccer player has been named Player of the Week since the College joined the GNAC prior to the 2023-24 school year.
