Jackson, MS – Majors Forward and Senior Captain Nico Roth has earned another postseason accolade from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America.
 
In a recent press release, the NSCAA announced the 2015 Senior College Men's Division III/NAIA/NCCAA Scholar All-America Team.  Roth was named First Team Scholar All-America Team, as his performance both on and off the field of play was outstanding for the historic 2015 season.
 
 Roth, a native of Alzenau, Germany, majors in business administration at Millsaps and has excelled both on the field of play and in the classroom during his time with the Majors.  Roth's 16 goals, 15 assists and 47 points led the Majors and the Southern Athletic Association for 2015 while he also has a 4.0 GPA.
 
The latest postseason award for Roth comes after he was named NSCAA Second Team All-America, NSCAA All-South Athletic Region Team, First Team All-SAA and SAA Offensive Player of the Year.  Roth helped lead the Majors in a historic 2015 campaign as they made their first NCAA Tournament appearance in school history after winning the SAA Tournament Championship.
 
Roth has plans to attend graduate school next fall after he completes an internship in New York City for the spring semester.  An awards ceremony will be held later next month at the annual NSCAA All-America Luncheon in Baltimore, Maryland as well.  The event will honor soccer players of all levels, as it is held during the 69th annual NSCAA Convention.  Over 1,400 people will attend the luncheon, as the event honoring the NSCAA All-Americans will be held Saturday, Jan. 16th.
 
The Millsaps Men's Soccer Team is proud to announce this latest achievement for Nico, as they add another postseason award and accomplishment to an outstanding 2015 season.
