MM 3.15: Former Maryland men’s soccer goalie Dayne St. Clair named MLS Player of the Week

This is the Maryland Minute, a short story followed by a roundup of Terps-related news.

Former Maryland men’s soccer and current Minnesota United goalie Dayne St. Clair earned MLS Player of the Week honors for his performance in Week Three of the 2022 MLS season.

St. Clair spearheaded Minnesota United’s effort on Sunday night against the New York Red Bulls, coming up with eight total saves. One of those saves was a penalty kick stop in the 14th minute. St. Clair finished the game without conceding a goal, helping his team to a 1-0 win.

The save on the penalty extended St. Clair’s impressive run with penalty kicks in his career as he now has not allowed a goal on four total penalty kick attempts. Other notable saves in the game came in the 46th minute, when he stopped Omir Fernandez, and also the 84th minute when St. Clair fully extended to make a stop.

For his efforts, St. Clair also received MLS Team of the Week honors. Minnesota United (1-0-2) will be back in action on Saturday to face San Jose in its last game in March.
