Delaware star Marius Stenner and three other players with local ties were named to the MAC Hermann Trophy watch list.
Stenner, a sophomore forward from Denmark, leads the unbeaten Blue Hens with 11 goals and 4 assists.
Former Philadelphia Union Academy and Union II goalkeeper Mitch Budler, a senior at Akron, former Phelps School star Junior Diouf (Freshman Forward at Grand Canyon) and West Chester United standout Giuliano Whitchurch (Senior Defender at Princeton) round out the local ties on the list of 31 players.
The 2025 midseason watch list was compiled by members of the Hermann Trophy Midseason Watch List Committee. A total of 15 players will be named 2025 Hermann Trophy semifinalists on December 9 at the conclusion of NCAA Division I All-American voting.
From that list, head coaches will cast votes, and three players will be named finalists. The 2025 recipient will be announced January 9, 2026, in a ceremony at the historic Missouri Athletic Club in downtown St. Louis, Mo.
