Jorgensen recorded the first two goals of his career on a pair of penalty kicks in the two games. His score against Saint Peter’s in the 87th minute broke a scoreless tie, while his goal against Canisius on Sept. 30 put the Red Foxes ahead, 2-1, with 11:08 remaining in the second half. Jorgensen finished the week with four points and four shots, including two on goal. He led a Marist defense that allowed just two goals in as many games.
