MidAmerica Men's Soccer Earns 2022 Musco Team Sportsmanship Award For Second-Straight Season

For their display of the NAIA's Five Core Character Values of Integrity, Respect, Responsibility, Sportsmanship & Servant Leadership, MidAmerica Nazarene has been selected the 2022 Musco Team Sportsmanship Award recipient for the sport of men's soccer for the second-consecutive season, announced by the Heart of America Athletic Conference.

"This award was developed by the Heart Association of Student-Athletes (HASA) and I am proud to see this award recognized for a second-straight year across the conference," said Heart of America Athletic Conference Commissioner Lori Thomas. "Under head coach Kevin Wardlaw, the Pioneers are very deserving of this award."

Teams are nominated by Athletics Administrators, Game Officials, Coaches, Student-Athletes and Fans.

Here is what the nominators had to say about the Pioneers:

"As an official I have witnessed MidAmerica Nazarene soccer consistently display respect to officials for several years, as well as take responsibility for their actions on the field and always shows sportsmanship towards its opponents. They also strive to show great integrity in the way they play the game and coach."

For the fall season, the Heart will be awarding its Team Sportsmanship award to one team from each sport of football, women's soccer, men's soccer, women's volleyball and cross country.
