Tough call... but I vote for Barson Anyone else have an opinion on which Akron SENIOR should get a nomination for the Lowes SENIOR CLASS AWARD for 2012?

Zip_ME87 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Anyone else have an opinion on which Akron SENIOR should get a nomination for the Lowes SENIOR CLASS AWARD for 2012? I think any of our 4 seniors are deserving. Scott and Chad probably have the highest GPAs, but I don't know that for certain, and I don't know enough about all of their off field activities. I am certain that the Zips will be more than well-represented. We have 4 awesome seniors! EDIT: And, I could never adequately thank them for the commitment and pride they bring to us.

In soccer... and some other sports... the real meaning of the CLASS award is somewhat lost... I think. I SUSPECT... that it was spec'ed out for football-like programs... where a Senior might turn down Pro contracts to stick around for her/his Senior year... knowing that a pro contract will come after graduation. In most other (or some?) college sports... if a player is offered a Pro Contract... they bolt. Soccer works a little different. We All know how the Generation Adidas contracts work... and it's more of a collective offer that involves coaches and players and MLS and USSoccer. Every once in a while... a player sticks around for a Senior year in soccer... and we hear about it.. but I can't remember it happening in Akron. SO... I think that maybe some of the CLASS Award guidelines are RELAXED a bit for soccer... and VOTING has a larger impact. Let's remember that in a few months... !!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_Adidas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree. I think CLASS means commitment to the school (involvement other than in the chosen sport), commitment in the classroom, commitment on the field, and commitment to the community. Since it is a SENIOR award, that would account for not leaving school early for the pro's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
