Utica University Athletics

Vladislav Pshenichnikov has been selected as a Pioneer Athlete of the Week for the week of November 11th.

Pshenichnikov had a great couple of games for the Pioneers in their 2-game sweep of Nazareth University to begin UCHC play, scoring four goals and getting an assist to end with a five-point weekend. During the first matchup in Rochester, the Sophomore netted his first career hat-trick, putting the game out of reach after Nazareth crept back into the game during the second period. He also nabbed an assist during a hectic 11-4 win in the series-opener. Pshenichnikov followed up that impressive performance by getting the game-winning goal in Saturday's matchup, earning the first star of the night and putting the finishing touches on a standout week.
