Florida Soccer Places Three on NSCAA Scholar All-America Teams
Sunday, January 23, 2011 | Soccer
The University of Florida shared the national lead for representatives on the 2010 National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Scholar All-America team with three Gators named to the squad. Two Gator All-Americans appear on the NSCAA Scholar All-America first team – junior Tahnai Annis and redshirt sophomore Kathryn Williamson. Redshirt sophomore McKenzie Barney appears on the NSCAA Scholar All-America second team.
Florida has placed a player on the NSCAA Scholar All-America first team eight times since 1998 and the three Gators recognized in 2010 set a program record for honorees in a single season.
| Did You Know… |
| Florida is the nation's only program to place a pair of players on both 2010 NSCAA All-America and NSCAA Scholar All-America teams (Tahnai Annis and Kathryn Williamson). |
Williamson picked up NSCAA/Performance Subaru All-America second team honors in 2010. She also was selected to the NSCAA All-South Region first-team, named the Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Year and placed on the All-SEC first team. She is the second consecutive Gator to earn the SEC Defensive Player of the Year honor after Lauren Hyde (another NSCAA Scholar All-American) received the award last year. Williamson started every match at center back in 2010 and led all Florida field players with an average of 88.29 minutes per match.
In 2010, Annis finished second in the conference in points (33) and goals (13). Her 33 points led the team and her total of 13 goals was one behind Barney's conference and team-leading 14. Annis was named to the 2010 NSCAA All-South Region first team and in November she was named to the All-SEC second team. Through three seasons as a Gator, Annis holds the No. 7 spot on Florida's career points list with 70 off of her 28 goals and 14 assists.
Barney led the SEC in 2010 for goals (14), shared the lead for game-winning goals (5) and was third in the league for points (32). In the final NCAA rankings, Barney tied for 13th in goals (14) and No. T-23 in points (32). She picked up NSCAA Player of the Week, CollegeSoccer360's Primetime Performers mention and her second SEC Offensive Player of the Week honor after scoring the golden goal just 15 seconds into overtime at then No. 10 Florida State on Sept. 10.
