Recca helped lead the Panthers to a season opening win over Saint Francis on Saturday contributing to both goals in a 2-0 victory. A true freshman, Recca scored one goal and had an assist on the other to help EIU win its first season opener since 2011.

Drake was named the OVC Offensive Player of the Week after hauling in 11 passes for 109 yards and one touchdown in the season opener at Minnesota.
