IOWA CITY, Iowa — University of Iowa graduate student Macy Enneking was named to the 2024 Mac Hermann Trophy Watch List, the Missouri Athletic Club announced this week. The trophy is the nation’s highest honor for collegiate soccer player of the year.
Enneking is the first Hawkeye to earn the preseason honor. The Hilliard, Ohio, native is one of five goalkeepers named to the watch list, recognizing her as one of the top players in the country at her position this season.
The watch list was compiled by members of the Division I Women’s All-America Council from a list of returning 2023 All-Americans and First Team All-Region players.
Enneking was previously named a 2024 United Soccer Coaches Player to Watch, becoming the first Hawkeye to receive that national preseason honor. Enneking was also named a Big Ten Player to Watch this season.
Enneking set a program individual record for goalkeeper shutouts last year (12.5) and helped lead the Hawkeyes to one of the top statistical defenses in program history. Iowa combined for 13 shutouts and a 0.76 goals-against average, which were both school records.
Last season, Enneking was named a Big Ten Player to Watch in the preseason before ending the season with all-region honors and an All-Big Ten Tournament Team nod. As a freshman in 2020, Enneking was Big Ten Tournament Defensive MVP and a unanimous All-Big Ten Freshman selection. Enneking has started in goal for each of Iowa’s two Big Ten Tournament Championships in program history, as well as both of the program’s NCAA Tournament victories.
A total of 15 players will be named 2024 Hermann Trophy semifinalists on December 4 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 2024 recipient will be announced January 3, 2025, in a ceremony at the historic Missouri Athletic Club in downtown St. Louis, Missouri.
Iowa will officially re-open the season against Colorado College on Aug. 18 at the Rumble in the Rockies in Missoula, Montana. Kickoff is set for noon (CT).
