Pioneers Stigall on team of season

DU men’s soccer player Jarod Stigall was a third team selection to TopDrawerSoccer.com’s Men’s Team of the Season, the national website announced Wednesday.

“I’m happy that Top Drawer Soccer recognized Jarod as one of the best players in the country this season,” Denver head coach Bobby Muuss said. “He was a huge part of our conference championship and trip to the NCAA Tournament in both 2008 and this year.”

Stigall was selected to the All-MPSF First Team this season after leading the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation in both assists (8) and points (26), and was tied for second in goals (9).

Stigall had 10 points, including two game-winning goals, in Denver’s final four regular season games, helping take the Pioneers from third place in the MPSF Mountain Division to the conference championship. Stigall won MPSF Player of the Week honors twice this season: following a two-goal effort to help DU tie No. 16 Portland and beat No. 20 Georgetown (Sept. 13), and after tallying a hat trick at Air Force (Oct. 2).
