MIDDLETOWN, Ohio -- (RV) WVU Tech goalkeeper Jorge Martinez made it back-to-back weeks with conference honors as he was selected for River States Conference Men's Soccer Defensive Player of the Week for Sept. 16-22.

The senior from Burgos, Spain, made eight saves on the week to keep the Golden Bears unbeaten in six games. He first had three saves in a 1-0 shutout of Indiana Tech. Martinez followed that up with five saves in a 1-1, double-overtime tie verus No. 19 Northwestern Ohio. After giving up a first-half goal, he held things there until WVU Tech caught up.

WVU Tech (5-0-1, 0-0 RSC) will host Asbury (Ky.) and Midway (Ky.) for the start of RSC play on Thursday and Saturday.
