From Emory University Athletics
Emory University sophomore defender Matt Sherr and
junior forward Dylan Price were each named to the
National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA)/ Continental
Tire NCAA Division III Men's All-South Atlantic Region Third Team
for their performances during the 2013 campaign.
This was the first all-region team selection for both of the
players.
Sherr, who was selected to the all-University Athletic Association
(UAA) First Team earlier this season, was a key player for an Emory
defense that shutout six opponents in 2013, while recording a 1.08
team goals-against average, the 127th-best mark among
the 408 ranked Division III teams. In UAA matches, the Eagles
defense led all conference squads with just six goals allowed and a
0.81 goals-against average. The center back added a goal and
two assists during the campaign. Sherr was also selected as
the UAA Athlete of the Week on September 3rd, and to the
Sonny Carter Invitational All-Tournament team for the
second-consecutive season.
Price, an Emory co-captain, was the Eagles' leading scorer
during the year, collecting 10 goals and adding on four assists for
24 points during the season, while also recording a team-best three
game-winning goals. The Eagles' co-captain finished second
among all UAA players with four goals and nine points in UAA
action, including the game winner against New York
University. He was named to the all-UAA Second Team earlier
this season, in addition to earning a spot on the Capital One/
CoSIDA Academic All-District squad, and claiming the UAA Athlete of
the Week honor on October 21st. At the end of his
junior season, Price ranks 14th in school history
with 29 career goals and 19th with 66 points.
Emory finished the 2013 season with an 11-5-2 overall record,
including a 4-1-2 mark in UAA matches, good for second place in the
conference.
