LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) – UNLV men's soccer senior goalkeeper Hugo Lemos was named the Raising Cane's Outstanding Rebel of the Week, the school announced Wednesday.

Lemos earned the honor for a second time in three weeks, after being the first Rebel to be recognized for the 2026-27 academic year.

The award goes to the student-athlete who turned in the best individual performance during the previous week of competition from Monday through Sunday as voted on by the UNLV Athletics Strategic Communications department.

A native of A Coruna, Spain, Lemos backed up UNLV's defense during a 2-0 week. He racked up 10 saves and back-to-back shutouts in 180 minutes, bringing his season total to 25 saves across seven starts. In a 1-0 home win over UC San Diego, Lemos collected six saves, while the remaining four came in a 2-0 road victory over UC Irvine.  

The pair of clean sheets also earned the veteran keeper Mountain West Defensive Player of the Week recognition for the second time this season.
