Barnett and Menti Named to Hermann Trophy Watch List

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A pair of Santa Clara women's soccer seniors have been named to the Hermann Trophy Watch List ahead of the 2024 season. Midfielders Colby Barnett and Sally Menti were the Broncos honored. They were both named Midfielders To Watch by United Soccer Coaches and to the Preseason All-WCC Team.

Barnett was named First Team All-West Region and Second Teal All-WCC in 2023. The then-junior started 20 matches and scored three goals with six assists.
 
Menti was First Team All-West Region and First Team All-WCC a season ago while scoring four goals and leading the team with nine assists. She is back for her fifth year.

The Broncos have two previous winners of the most prestigious honor in college soccer. Mandy Clemens won the award in 1999 and Aly Wagner took home the hardware in 2002.

The Hermann Trophy is presented annually by the Missouri Athletic Club and is the nation's highest individual honor recognizing the National Player of the Year as determined by voting of Division I head coaches who are members of United Soccer Coaches. It is named in honor of the late Robert Hermann, the legendary St. Louis, Mo., businessman and soccer executive who founded the National Professional Soccer League, the first pro soccer league in the United States which became the North American Soccer League. He was inducted in the U.S. Soccer Hall of Fame in 2012.

The watch 2024 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. 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, Mo.
