Senior Chris A. Named Gatorade Player of the Year
In its third decade of honoring the nation's best high school athletes, The Gatorade Company, in partnership with RISE Magazine, announced senior forward Chris A. as its 2007-08 Gatorade National Boys Soccer Player of the Year at a press conference held at McDonogh School on June 2.
The award recognizes not only athletic excellence, but also high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the field. A national advisory board comprised of sportswriters and sports-specific experts from around the country helped select Chris from the more than 378,000 high school boys soccer players nationwide.
"Without question, Chris is deserving of recognition as the nation's best high school boys soccer player based on his statistics on the field and the impact his play had on McDonogh School's success," said Gatorade Senior Vice President of Sports Marketing Jeff Urban. "But he is also a shining example to peers and aspiring young players of what a leader and a student-athlete should be. He represents everything we hope for in a Gatorade Player of the Year recipient."
Chris joins former MLS player Todd Haskins to become the only two athletes from Maryland ever to win Gatorade National Player of the Year in any sport. Chris is now a finalist for the prestigious Gatorade Male High School Athlete of the Year award, to be presented in July.
The Gatorade Player of the Year program annually recognizes one winner in the District of Columbia and each of the 50 states that sanction high school football, girls volleyball, boys and girls cross country, boys and girls basketball, boys and girls soccer, baseball, softball, and boys and girls track and field, and awards one National Player of the Year in each sport.
