A lot of guys that deserved the honor, especially at the attack position for the First Team squad. There’s five of them. All five of them definitely played up to First Team potential.
One player I’m surprised didn’t get even an Honorable Mention was Canisius Golden Griffins attackman Connor Kearnan. Kearnan was tied with Virginia’s Michael Kraus for eighth in the nation at 4.88 points a game. He was also tied with Kraus and Princeton’s Michael Sowers for fifth in the nation with 88 points. I think Kearnan had better seasons than a handful of guys that were Honorable Mentions.
The USILA also announced their individual award winners:
- Lt. Col. J. I. (Jack) Turnbull Award (Outstanding Attackman): Pat Spencer, Loyola
- Lt. Donald MacLaughlin, Jr. Award (Outstanding Midfielder): Trevor Baptiste, Denver
- William C. Schmeisser Award (Outstanding Defensive Player): John Sexton, Notre Dame
- Ensign C. Markland Kelly, Jr. Award (Outstanding Goalie): JD Colarusso, Albany
- Lt. Raymond J. Enners Award (Outstanding Player): Ben Reeves, Yale
The Enners Award has ben a very good guess as to who the Tewaaraton Award winner would be. The last six years, the winner of the Enners Award has won the Tewaaraton Award. Since the Tewaaraton Award was established in 2001, 11 of those winners have won the Enners Award. With Reeves still playing in Championship Weekend, it appears he’s currently the favorite the win the Tewaaraton Award over Justin Guterding and Connor Kelly, who are also playing this weekend, as well as Pat Spencer and Trevor Baptiste.
