ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - After a pair of two goal matches this past weekend, sophomore McKauly Tulloch has been named the Bright House Student-Athlete of the Week.

Tulloch's two goals on Friday was all the offense the UCF men's soccer team needed, as they shut out Massachusetts 2-0.

The 6-foot-1 sophomore did not stop there, as he scored on a cross shot over the box in the far left corner of the net against Belmont Sunday night. With a 2-1 lead, Tulloch put the game out of reach with an easy tap in during the 82nd minute.

After playing for a national championship team in his freshman season at Akron, Tulloch looks like a key addition for the Knights, after scoring five goals in the team's first three contests.

The Knights climbed four spots to No. 12 in the national polls after an impressive 3-0 start to the season. Looking to build off this momentum, the Knights will host North Florida Wednesday at 7 p.m.
