Beckman Earns Summit League Offensive Player of the Week Honors

The Pioneer senior scored the leveler on Friday and the Denver second on Sunday to help guide the Pioneers to their fourth-straight Summit League regular season title

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – University of Denver senior forward Natalie Beckman has been named the TicketSmarter Summit League Offensive Player of the Week, the league office announced on Monday.
 
Beckman scored in both of the Pioneers matches this weekend, netting the equalizer in Denver's 1-1 draw with South Dakota on Friday night before scoring the Denver second in a 2-0 win over South Dakota State to clinch the outright regular season title for the Pioneers, their fourth regular season title in as many years.
 
The Denver, Colorado, native has scored in three of Denver's final four games and had at least a point in each of Denver's nine Summit League matches en-route to the program's 12th regular season title in the Division I era (since 1998).  
 
Up Next:
Denver will remain at home for the 2021 Summit League Women's Soccer Championship. A pair of Friday night rematches will feature in the two semifinals on Thursday. Denver will take on fourth-seeded South Dakota in the first Semifinal Thursday at 1 p.m. MT (tied 1-1 Friday) before second-seeded South Dakota State will take on third-seeded Omaha (2-1 SDSU Friday at Omaha). The Summit League Final will kickoff at 2 p.m. MT on Saturday at the University of Denver Soccer Stadium.
