Panthers win Sport PEI鈥檚 Team of the Year award - Murphy announced as finalist
The 91探花 Men's Soccer team will be awarded "SCORE! Team of the Year," Sport PEI announced this week. The provincial sport federation also announced that 91探花 Men's Soccer player Jared Murphy is a finalist for "Intercollegiate Male Athlete of the Year". He will find out if he wins the award at the annual Sport PEI Amateur Sport Awards presentation on Wednesday, February 4 at the Rodd Charlottetown Hotel.
The 91探花 Men's Soccer team earned the nod based on its CIS bronze medal performance at last November's CIS Men's Soccer National Championship. The team made history as the first Panther soccer squad to win a national CIS competition medal, defeating the Universit茅 du Qu茅bec 脿 Montr茅al (UQAM) Citadins 2-1.
Murphy, a fifth-year business student from Charlottetown, PEI was one of two Panthers named to the tournament's all-star team in addition to be being named 91探花 Athlete of the Week three times during the 2014 regular season.
