In a thrilling 2-1 victory at Cleveland State, Beech set up Alvar Silva’s game-winning goal for the Lakers in the final minutes of the match. Playing the ball just past midfield, Beech launched the ball into the box where a Harrison Dudley header set up Silva’s score to the top shelf. This marks the second straight year that a Laker has won a NEC Rookie of the Week award with Santiago Giraldo taking home the honor a season ago.
