ORLANDO, Fla. (UCFAthletics.com) - After helping 11th-ranked UCF to a win over Tulsa over the weekend, junior Nik Robson received a pair of national honors on Monday. Robson scored two goals in UCF's 2-1 come-from-behind win over the Golden Hurricane Saturday.

He was named to the TopDrawerSoccer.com National Team of the Week and the College Soccer News National Team of the Week.

Both of his scores against Tulsa came in the second half. He tallied the game-winning score at the 70-minute mark. Robson handled a loose ball in the box with his left foot, and shot across his body as he was falling into the right corner past Tulsa goalkeeper Michael Murray. Robson tied the match in the 65th minute when he scored on a free kick from 20 yards out. The junior has six goals on the year.

Robson and the Knights will return to action Tuesday with a non-league match at Stetson.
