Men’s MAC Hermann Trophy winner set to be revealed on Friday, Jan. 5

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – United Soccer Coaches in partnership with the Missouri Athletic Club (MAC) recently announced the men’s finalists for the 2023 MAC Hermann Trophy, as the NCAA Division I National Player of the Year. Finalists were determined on voting by the Division I men’s coaches.

The MAC Hermann Trophy banquet will be held at the historic Missouri Athletic Club in St. Louis on Jan. 5, 2024, to formally announce this year’s winners.

The three finalists are Western Michigan senior forward Charlie Sharp (Brighton, Mich.), Clemson senior forward Ousmane Sylla (Dakar, Senegal) and Wake Forest senior defender Garrison Tubbs (Brunswick, Ga.).

Sharp scored 19 goals, had eight assists and had seven game winning goals in leading the Broncos to a 17-2-3 record and third round appearance in the NCAA tournament where they lost to national runner-up Notre Dame on penalty kicks.

Sylla had 13 goals, 10 assists and five game winning goals as the Tigers captured their second national NCAA National Championship in three years.

Tubbs was the Atlantic Coast Conference Defensive Player of the Year and the only defender named to the ACC first team as he captained the Deamon Deacons to a 11-3-5 and the Atlantic Division conference title.

The MAC Hermann Trophy, the most coveted individual honor in NCAA Division I soccer, has been awarded annually since 1967.
