The Tars of Rollins College placed four men on the All-Sunshine State Conference teams. Sophomore forward Chris Cerroni and junior defender Daniell Robertson were named to the first team, junior defender David Dwyer was placed on the second team, and senior forward David Pitt earned honorable mention.
Robertson was also honored with the Defensive Player of the Year award. Men's head coach Keith Buckley was named the Sunshine State Conference Coach of the Year. Buckley, in his fourteenth season as head coach, led the Tars to their first-ever SSC regular season title with a conference record of 6-1-1 and a current overall record of 11-2-3. The Tars are ranked seventh in the nation in the latest poll and are hosting the SSC Tournament the weekend of November 5-7 at home, where they are a perfect 8-0.
This is Buckley's third SSC Coach of the Year award. Robertson led a staunch defense that allowed only 14 goals in 16 games and shut out the opposition in eight games. He started and played in all 16 games adding three assists to go along with his lock-down defensive play and vocal leadership. Dwyer also recorded an assist on the season as a key member of the defense, starting 13 of the 16 games he appeared in. Rollins' 0.93 goals allowed per game was tops in the SSC. On the opposite side of the ball, Cerroni led the Tars with 27 points on 10 goals and seven assists. He started and played in all 16 of the Tars' games, hitting four game-winning shots. Pitt was fourth on the team with 12 points on three goals and six assists. He played in all 16 games.
