1. Kevin Higgins
Before a penalty kick in game 1 of the Spring season versus Lexington Eagles, Higgins confidently exclaimed 'Gimme the ball and I'll bury it'. He subsequently took a shocking penalty that was easily saved.
2. John Hickey
An away game versus Harvard saw John Hickey re-writing the offside rule, as he looked ridiculous claiming his run was beautifully timed versus the 20 yard lacrosse line on the field (not the half way line).
3. Tom McElwain
In a friendly match versus Boston Gunners, McElwain came up with a goal of the season nominee. Facing his own goal, Tom steadied himself under a high ball and volleyed with authority into the top right hand corner on the net (his own net unfortunately).
4. Leo O'Connor
The opening game of the fall season was played in torrential conditions, lashing rain and on a pitch with inches of standing water. Much to the dismay of one Leo O'Connor, who before the game went canvasing like Obama. Campaigning to anyone who'd listen in order to get the game abandoned.
5. Petey McNamee
Come back kid Petey McNamee didn't take long to find his form on the pitch as he joined the team for the fall season. In his third game versus United International he also discovered the dangers of taking a throw in. McNamee pulling up with a tweaked back that required he leave the game as he attempted to restart play and come to terms with getting old.
6. Conor Hannick
The big Mayo man somewhat tarnished his Club man of the Year reputation by sleeping in at the most inopportune time, leaving his team mates without a set of gear to start the game versus United International.
7. Gavin Hall
Govenor has the dubious distinction of commiting three acts that are normally punishable with the purchase of a round of shots for his teammates. A penalty miss and 2 red cards. Not a single shot has been purchased by the culprit in a shocking abuse of the team's rules.
8. Other nominees accepted....
