The Heart of America Athletic Conference released their Men’s Soccer All-Conference teams this week and the Pioneers placed 3 players on the teams. In a vote done by the conference coaches at their annual end-of-the-season meeting, Trent Remmich, Michael Shadfar, and Luis Padilla were honored with the selections.
Trent Remmich, a sophomore from Wichita, Kansas, was voted as a forward to the HAAC 1st Team. He finished 3rd in the conference in scoring with 13 goals and 6 assists on the season. He led MNU in goals scored and assists for the season and was a big reason why the Pioneers were so dangerous offensively. “Trent had a breakout year for us,” stated Coach Wardlaw. “I am happy that he has been recognized in this manner and I know he has a big future ahead of him.”
Michael Shadfar joins Trent on the HAAC 1st Team as a Midfielder. The junior from Overland Park, KS came to MNU from Johnson County Community College where he played for 2 years before transferring to MNU. He earned a starting role midway through the season and ended the year with 4 goals and 5 assists from his defensive midfield position. “Michael ended up being a huge part of our success,” stated Coach Wardlaw. “Once he learned our system and his position he was a big part of our midfield.”
Luis Padilla, a senior from Tepatitlan de Morelos, Mexico was selected to the HAAC 3rd Team as a forward. Luis had a breakout year after struggling his junior year to really make an impact on the team. He finished the year with 4 goals and 4 assists. Coach Wardlaw stated, “I am extremely happy that Luis was honored with this selection. He has grown a ton as a player and a person in the last year and it is gratifying to see his hard work pay off in this manner.”
The Pioneers finished the year with a 9-7-1 overall record and a 4-4-1 conference record
