ATLANTA – After leading his team to a pair of ranked victories over the weekend, Georgia Tech senior Brooks Baro has been named the MCLA Division I Warrior Player of the Week for the period ending Feb. 10.

The Yellow Jackets opened the weekend on Friday against No. 25 Auburn and the Peachtree City, Ga., was a force, burying four goals against the Tigers while also setting up two others for a six-point evening.

On Sunday, the Ramblin’ Wreck tangled with No. 20 Colorado and again it was Baro leading the way with five goals and a dime in a 15-7 triumph.

For the weekend, the McIntosh High School alum amassed nine goals and three assists – a 6.0 points per game average.

“Brooks was instrumental for us this weekend,” said Georgia Tech offensive coordinator E.J. Freeman. “He was very aggressive as a dodger and was able to put a lot of pressure on the defense.

“Brooks scored several first quarter goals over the weekend that helped us get ahead early and play with a lead in both games.”

For his efforts earning the Warrior Player of the Week, Baro will receive a Warrior Burn XP2-O – a $120 value. Warrior is a proud sponsor of the MCLA.
