The Indianapolis, native organized a Hoosier defense from the center back position that held a pair of top-10 programs without a goal in two matches. MISSOURI ATHLETIC CLUB HERMANN TROPHY WATCH LIST Senior midfielder Brian Plotkin joined juniors Jacob Peterson and Jed Zayner on the 2005 Missouri Athletic Club (M.A.C.) Hermann Trophy Watch List released by the National Soccer Coaches Association. The trio are among the 25 players considered the best returning players in college soccer. Last season, Danny O'Rourke became the first Hoosier to win the M.Å.C. Hermann Trophy. The M.A.C. Award and Hermann Trophy were merged into one award prior to the 2002 season. Before that, the honors were both given out as national player of the year awards. The merge of the two honors completed a process of combining the three top honors in collegiate soccer. In 1999, the M.A.C. and NSCAA came together to create a single award to recognize the top Division I player. On five occasions, a Hoosier won the Hermann Trophy and on three occasions, a Hoosier won the M.A.C. Player of the Year Award. The list of Hermann Trophy winners includes: Angelo DiBernardo (1978), Armando Betancourt (1981), Ken Snow (1988, 1990) and Brian Maisonneuve (1994). The list of M.A.C. Award winners includes Snow (1988, 1990) and Todd Yeagley (1994). O'Rourke became the first to win the merged honor. The Hoosiers had the most representatives on this year's 25-player preseason watch list. A quartet of other schools, UCLA, UNC-Greensboro, Connecticut and Duke, had a pair of players listed. Last season, Indiana was one of three schools with two players named to the watch list as O'Rourke and Drew Moor were named. Both Hoosiers went on to be first round picks in the Major League Soccer SuperDraft and are currently playing in the league. A list of 15 semifinalists for the award will be announced in early November, with the three finalists announced in December. The final three will be invited to St. Louis for a news conference and dinner held at the Missouri Athletic Club on Jan. 6, 2006, where the winner of the award will be revealed. The winner is determined through voting of NCAA Division I members of the NSCAA.

The Hoosiers have a history of drawing large crowds. Indiana ranked among the top three in average attendance in 2001 and Also in 2001, the Hoosiers ranked third in total attendance with 25,630 visiting Armstrong Stadium. In 2001, the Hoosiers averaged 2,330 over their 11 games. The following season, the Hoosiers averaged 2,195, which was second nationally. Since the NCAA began tracking attendance for men s soccer in 2001, Indiana is one of only two schools (Connecticut being the other) to average over 2,000 fans every season. In fact, the Hoosiers have average 2, 287 fans per game since the 2001 season. BIG TEN FAVORITES Indiana was selected as the preseason favorite to win the Big Ten Conference title. The Hoosiers were chosen by the conference coaches as the championship favorite for the second straight season. Indiana has won nine consecutive Big Ten Regular Season Championships and 11 in the 14-year history of the league. The Hoosiers also have captured 10 of the 14 Big Ten Tournament Championships. IU split the conference title a season ago with Ohio State. Both squads went 5-1 during the regular season, but the Hoosiers earned the top seed in the conference tournament due to the head-to-head victory over the Buckeyes during the regular season. Penn State was selected second in the conference poll followed by Northwestern in third. Michigan, Ohio State, Michigan State and Wisconsin rounded out the preseason conference poll. The Big Ten sent six of its seven soccer teams to the NCAA Tournament in 2004, the most of any conference. LOOKING FOR A NEW RECORD The 2005 Indiana men s soccer team will look to do something no other squad in school history has been able to do, three-peat. After winning back-to-back national titles in 2003 and 2004, under the direction of second-year head coach Mike Freitag, the Cream and Crimson will look to win its third straight national title. The 1984 and 2000 teams fell short of the feat in the College Cup. The only other program in NCAA history to win three straight national titles is Virginia from NATIONAL EXPOSURE Junior Jacob Peterson and freshman Lee Nguyen spent their summers playing for the United States National Teams. Both Peterson and Nguyen were members of the U.S. Under-20 contingent at the FIFA World Youth Championships in Holland. The duo helped the national team advance to the Round of 16, while winning Group D. Peterson played in all four games of the championship, including a start against Egypt. He also notched the game-winner in that start. Nguyen saw action in two matches at the championships and also started against Egypt. In 2005, Peterson played in 12 matches for the U.S. U20s, including eight international competitions. For his career, Peterson has 11 international caps with the Under-20 National Team and has scored three career goals. Nguyen appeared in 11 matches for the U20s, scoring two goals and adding an assist. Nguyen also was the leading scorer on the U.S. Under-18 National team. In seven matches with the U18s, the Richardson, Texas, native was the side's leading scorer with five goals and two assists. Nguyen also helped the squad to its first ever Milk Cup title on Aug. 5. He scored the team s lone goal in a 1-1 tie against perennial power Brazil during the competition. RETURNING THE SCORING PUNCH The Hoosiers return a good portion of their offense from a season ago. IU returns 77.3 percent (34 of 44) of its goals and 106 of 133 points (79.7 percent) from Included in those totals are the Hoosiers top five scorers, all returning from last season. Those numbers do not include the addition of redshirt freshman Kevin Noschang, who led the Hoosiers in scoring during the spring campaign with five goals in six games. Here is a look at the Hoosiers top five leading scorers from a season ago: 1) Jacob Peterson 24 points (11 goals, 2 assists) 2) Brian Plotkin 19 points (5 goals, 9 assists) 3) John Michael Hayden 18 points (7 goals, 4 assists) 4) Mike Ambersley 12 points (3 goals, 6 assists) 5) Kevin Robson 9 points (1 goal, 7 assists) HOME SWEET HOME The Hoosiers enjoy one of the best home field advantages in all of college soccer. All-time at Bill Armstrong Stadium, IU holds a winning percentage of.875 with a record of The Hoosiers are even better in NCAA and Big Ten Conference action at home. At Bill Armstrong Stadium during the NCAA Tournament, the Hoosiers are 45-3 (.938). Indiana has not lost an NCAA Tournament match at home since 1995, a span of 19 matches. In Big Ten Conference play, IU is (.908) all-time at Armstrong Stadium. IU is even better during just the Big Ten regular season with a record of (.919). The Hoosiers have won four Big Ten Tournament Championships at Armstrong Stadium.
