The MAC Hermann Trophy is the most coveted individual honor in NCAA D-I soccer, honoring the most outstanding intercollegiate performance in men's and women's soccer each year since 1967.
Andrews has scored 9 goals this season, including 4 game-winners. She earned three multi-goal performances, most recently scoring 2 in USC's first-round NCAA game against Eastern Washington. The Milford, NH native, who transferred to USC from Notre Dame before the 2015 season, earned Pac-12 first team honors the last two years, and was named the third-best player in the nation by TopDrawer Soccer midway through the 2016 season.
Andrews is just the third Trojan to ever be named a semifinalist for soccer's version of the Heisman (Amy Rodriguez in 2008, Kristin Olsen in 2009). Past winners of the award include U.S. soccer standouts Morgan Brian, Crystal Dunn, Christen Press, Kelley O'Hara and Mia Hamm.
Three finalists will be chosen from the pool of 15 semifinalists on Dec. 14 and the winner will be announced on Jan. 6, 2017. Before that, Andrews and the Women of Troy will take on Georgetown in the Final Four in San Jose, CA. Should USC beat the Hoyas this Friday, the team will play in the national championship on Sunday at 3 p.m. Both games will be televised on ESPNU.
