All-West Coast Conference forward Marquis White and senior midfielder Robert Aparicio were honored as co-Most Valuable Players of the men's soccer team last month at the teams award ceremonies. White, who led the team in scoring for the second straight year with 15 goals and seven assists, knocked in four game-winning goals this season. Aparicio, a four-year player under Head Coach Steve Negoesco, chipped in five assist and a goal as the team's spark plug in the mid-field. Junior Todd Iversen was recognized as the outstanding underclassman, being named the recipient of the Stephen Negoesco Award after starting 18 games in the mid-field, while defender Matt Snyder was given the Gus Donoghue Award for high recognition of character. Snyder, a senior walk-on who started 12 games as an emergency replacement, was a key part of the Dons stifling defense. Snyder and Iversen are expected back next year, while White and Aparicio have exhausted their eligibility (TheFoghorn).
