The Spring Hill College women’s soccer team won the eighth annual Gulf South Conference (GSC) Women’s Soccer Fair Play Award, the league announced Wednesday.
Spring Hill received the sportsmanship award for the second time in program history. The Badgers committed 103 fouls this season, and those fouls culminated in only six yellow cards. The six yellow cards and 103 fouls were the fewest in the GSC.
In addition to SHC, Union and Alabama Huntsville were nominated for the award.
The GSC Women’s Soccer Fair Play Award is awarded annually to the team that best portrays sportsmanship over the course of a full season. The three conference teams to have accumulated the fewest total cards, yellow and red combined, were nominated for the award. GSC coaches voted for their respective top choice from the three-team pool, but could not vote for their own team. The team that received the most votes earned the award.
