DENVER – Midfielder Jeremy Sieverts was named the MLL Offensive Player of the Week for Week 1 of the 2012 MLL Season, the league announced on Monday.

Sieverts scored four goals, including a pair of two-point markers, and added an assist in the Outlaws’ 21-12 season-opening victory at American Legion Memorial Stadium in Charlotte on Saturday, April 28. His four goals tied for the most among all MLL players in Week 1 and he was the only player in the league to score multiple two-point goals.

Sieverts’ seven-point outing tied for seventh in team history for a single game, and he became just the eighth player in franchise history to record multiple two-point goals in the same game.

Sieverts, who was acquired in an offseason trade from the Chesapeake Bayhawks, had tallied just six points in his career prior to Saturday’s seven-point performance. The weekly award is the first in his MLL career.

The award is the 12^th Offensive Player of the Week that an Outlaws player has earned in the team’s history and is the 23^rd overall player of the week award garnered by an Outlaw (12 Offensive Players of the Week / 8 Defensive Players of the Week / 3 Rookies of the Week).
