Lake Forest College men's hockey player Mark Esshaki was named Forester Athlete of the Week on Thursday after helping lead his team to a pair of victories over visiting Nazareth College last weekend.
Esshaki, a senior defenseman and one of the team's assistant captains, started the weekend by assisting on the Foresters' second goal in their 4-1 victory Friday night.
Lake Forest blanked the Golden Flyers 6-0 on Saturday and Esshaki helped set up three of the final four goals in the contest.
Esshaki, who was also named Northern Collegiate Hockey Association Defensive Player of the Week on Tuesday, is now tied for the conference lead with 10 assists this season and his 12 points are tied-for-third overall and tied-for-first among the league's defensemen.
Forester Athletes of the Week are selected by the Athletic Department on Thursdays.
