Here are the best goals from Week 7 of men's soccer action.
Eryk Williamson β Maryland
Junior Eryk Williamson had an incredible individual performance in Maryland's 5-4 win over Wisconsin. He recorded a hat trick in the span of 17 minutes in the second half, including this ridiculous strike from roughly 25 yards out that landed in the right side net over the Badgers' keeper.

Drew Skundrich β Stanford
With just three passes and five bounces of the ball, Stanford went from its own box to scoring a game-tying goal against Washington. Goalkeeper Nico Corti blasted a kick past midfield, where freshman Jack O'Brien sent a back-heel flick to Tomas Hilliard-Arce. Hilliard-Arce drew out Washington's keeper, allowing Skundrich to volley the ball into an open goal.
