DAHLONEGA – University of North Georgia men's soccer player, Joe McInnes, has been named Chick-fil-A Nighthawk of the Week after his two-goal performance against USC Aiken. 

The two goals came at a critical time in UNG's season; McInnes led the Nighthawks to a win that would clinch a home Peach Belt Conference postseason game. McInnes ranks first on the team in points, leading in both goals and assists.

This is the second time McInnes has won the award, becoming the first Nighthawk to win the award twice this year. 

The Nighthawk of the Week title sponsor is Chick-fil-A of Dahlonega, with each week's winner being treated to a complimentary combo meal at the Dahlonega restaurant. Located at 488 Morrison Moore Parkway East, Chick-fil-A loves to give back to the local area and is proud to be a community partner with UNG Athletics.

Beginning in the fall of 2014, the UNG athletic department began honoring one student-athlete each Monday morning as the Nighthawk of the Week. The award is chosen each Sunday evening by an award selection committee made up of members of the UNG athletics administrative staff.
