Sherr & Price of Emory Named to NSCAA All-Region Team

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.
