The Missouri Athletic Club’s Hermann
Trophy honors the top male and female Division I college soccer
players in the United States. The award is college soccer’s
version of the Heismann Trophy and represents the highest level
of individual achievement in the sport. Over the years, the
award has honored some of the biggest names in U.S. soccer.
Kristine Lilly, Mia Hamm, Shannon MacMillan, Claudio Reyna,
Alexi Lalas and Tony Meola are just a few of the players who won
the award prior to achieving success on the international stage.
The winners of
the award are selected through voting by the members of the
National Soccer Coaches Association of America. Each January,
the winners are honored at an annual banquet at the Missouri
Athletic Club, located in downtown St. Louis. The Missouri
Athletic Club's Hermann Trophy is on exhibition at the National
Soccer Hall of Fame Museum in Oneonta, NY. |
