Anasi Named Semifinalist for the MAC Hermann Trophy
12/5/2011 2:58:00 PM | Women's Soccer
DURHAM, N.C. - Duke University sophomore defender Natasha Anasi has been named one of 15 semifinalists for the 2011 Missouri Athletic Club's Hermann Trophy, the most prestigious individual award in intercollegiate soccer.
A native of Arlington, Texas, Anasi helped guide the Blue Devil women's soccer program to its first appearance in the NCAA College Cup since 1992 and a trip to the National Championship game, before falling to top-ranked Stanford, 1-0.
Anasi, the 2011 Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) Defender of the Year, started all 27 matches for the Blue Devils. The 5-6 defender moved from the midfield to the defense in the fourth game of the season after redshirt junior Ashley Rape went down with an ACL injury. Anasi helped lead a Duke team that posted school-records for shutouts (16), wins (22) and conference victories (8).
An All-ACC first team honoree, Anasi logged the second-most minutes on the team (2,339), scored one goal and had one assist on the season. Duke registered nine wins against ranked opponents and allowed a school-record-low 13 goals (tied 1988).
Head coaches of NCAA Division I programs with current membership in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) will vote to determine the 2011 MAC Hermann Trophy recipient. Three finalists for the award will be announced on Friday, Dec. 9. They will be invited to the Missouri Athletic Club in St. Louis for a news conference on Friday, Jan. 6, 2012, where the winner will be announced. A dinner and form presentation of the award will follow the news conference that evening.
