Written by Bruna Niederkorn, AMC Assistant Commissioner
ST. LOUIS, Mo. – The American Midwest Conference (AMC) has announced the 2025 AMC Women's Soccer season awards, All-Conference Teams, Champions of Character Team and Academic All-Conference Team.
- Cameron Watts is Columbia's sixth overall AMC Men's Soccer Player of the Year and the first since 2020.
- With Williams Baptist teammates Ricardo Da Silva and Hugo Farrona earning Freshman and Newcomer of the Year honors, respectively, it marks the fifth time those two awards have gone to the same school in the same year (2009 Columbia, 2017 William Woods, 2021 Columbia, and 2024 Columbia). Da Silva and Farrona are the second Eagles' to claim those awards.
- Nenad Todorovic of Harris-Stowe earned the Hornets' first AMC Men's Soccer Coach of the Year honor since 1997 (AMC Hall of Famer Dennis Currier).
- In Mission's first-ever AMC Tournament appearance, the team captured its first Fair Play & Sportsmanship Award.
- Harris-Stowe's Leonardo Mori earned First Team All-Conference recognition for the third consecutive year.
- Central Baptist's Jasper Gadellaa and Columbia's Wil Essner were named First Team All-Conference for the second time in their careers.
- Four players earned their second All-Conference selection: Hugo Chacon (CBC), Brady Freeman (CC), Caio Lobo (HLG), and Carlos Aedo (WBU).
- The 2025 season marks the second year that a Second Team All-Conference has been recognized, following the previous format that included only First Team and Honorable Mentions.
- Season awards and All-Conference Teams are selected by a vote of the Conference men's soccer coaches.
- The Champions of Character Team features one player from each school, chosen by their coach and teammates as the individual who best exemplifies the Five Core Values of the NAIA Champions of Character® initiative — Respect, Responsibility, Sportsmanship, Integrity, and Servant Leadership.
- To qualify for Academic All-Conference honors, student-athletes must be in at least their second semester at their AMC institution, maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA, and complete the season on the team.
