The '''Hermann Trophy''' is awarded annually by the [[Missouri Athletic Club]] to the [[United States]]'s top men's and women's [[College soccer in the United States|college soccer]] players.

==History==
In 1967, [[Bob Hermann]], the president of the [[National Professional Soccer League (1967)|National Professional Soccer League]] (NPSL) and the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the NPSL's successor, the [[North American Soccer League (1968–1984)|North American Soccer League]], established a trophy to annually recognize the top men's collegiate soccer player.  The trophy, which was first announced in the December 9, 1967 issue of ''[[The Sporting News]]'', was named the Hermann Trophy and has been awarded each year since. In 1988, a second Hermann Trophy was inaugurated to recognize the top women's collegiate player of the year.

In 1986, the Missouri Athletic Club (MAC) began naming an annual player of the year as a rival to the Hermann Trophy.  Then in 1996, the [[NSCAA|National Soccer Coaches Association of America]] (NSCAA) initiated its own annual player of the year award.  These three competing awards began merging three years later when the NSCAA and MAC agreed to cooperate on naming a combined collegiate player of the year.  Finally, beginning in 2002, the MAC/NSCAA and Hermann Trophy organization merged to create a unified trophy for the top college [[soccer]] player of the year.

The original Hermann Award Trophy is on display in the Hermann Atrium located in the McDonnell Athletic Center at [[MICDS]] in Ladue, Missouri.  The original trophy was donated to the school by Hermann in 2003.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nscaa.com/awards/college/mac-hermann-trophy|title=MAC Hermann Trophy : NSCAA Awards|work=nscaa.com}}</ref>

The current MAC Hermann Trophy is on display in the lobbies of the Missouri Athletic Club's Downtown and West County Clubhouses.

==Selection process==
Today, the process of selecting a winner begins at the start of the college soccer season when a list of potential nominees is compiled by a nominating committee.  Near the end of the collegiate regular season, 15 players whom the committee considers the best in Division I soccer are announced as semifinalists for the award.  That list is then voted on through an online voting process by men's and women's Division I soccer coaches whose teams are current NSCAA College Services members.  In early December the top three vote-getters for both the men's and women's trophy are announced as finalists for the award. These six individuals are invited to an annual banquet held at the Missouri Athletic Club of [[St. Louis, Missouri|St. Louis]].  That evening, the winners of the two awards are announced and receive a 10-pound crystal replica soccer ball made by [[Tyrone Crystal]] of [[County Tyrone]], [[Northern Ireland]].
