ELMHAMMAR AND ROTH NAMED NSCAA ALL-SOUTH ATLANTIC

JACKSON, MS- Lukas Elmhammar and Nico Roth officially received their first and third team All-Region Awards at the National Soccer Coaches Association of America convention this past week. 

This honor for both players gets stacked on their first-team All-SAA nods earlier this year. 

"Very proud of the guys and their efforts this season," Coach Steve Voltz said. "They worked extremely hard and deserve this honor. But this would not have happened with out a strong team effort all season as well. At the same time, it helps sets high expectations for next year."

Elmhammar earned first-team All-Region honors after leading the Majors with 16 goals, eight assists and 40 points in 2014, both his goals and points totals are second in Millsaps' history for a single season. Elmhammar shattered a Majors' record with eight of his 16 goals proving to be the game-winner. The Stockholm native also earned Academic All-American status this year, earning a spot on the National-Third Team. 

Nico Roth earned third-team All-Region with his nine-goal and 24-point season in 11 matches in 2014. The forward had a trio of two-goal games this season and has helped the Majors to a pair of SAA regular season titles in his two years in Jackson. 

These awards cap a tremendous year for the Majors in which the club set a school record for wins with 13 and matched a record with seven-straight wins.
