The GoBonnies.com Male Athlete of the Week presented by CPL for the week ending Feb. 22 is men's soccer sophomore Luca Nicastro.

Nicastro earned Atlantic 10 Co-Player of the Week honors, conference officials announced Monday.

An Ottawa, Ontario native, Nicastro netted the first game-winning goal of his career in overtime last Friday afternoon against Gannon, which reached the Division II Sweet 16 before losing to the eventual national champion in 2019, at Sahlen's Sports Park.

Nicastro pounced on a Gannon mistake in the 95th minute, made a move around the goalkeeper and slotted home the goal, sending the Bonnies home winners, 2-1, in the first contest of the season.

The sophomore forward started seven games in his first season with the Bonnies in 2019 while playing in all 14 games. Nicastro also scored a goal and added two assists as a freshman.
