MADISON, Wis. -- The unquestioned leader of the Wisconsin men's soccer team this past season, senior midfielder Drew Conner was recognized on the 2015 Big Ten Men's Soccer All-Tournament Team by the conference last weekend.
While the Badgers were eliminated in the quarterfinal round of the tournament with a 1-0 loss at Indiana, Conner helped Wisconsin finish its season unbeaten in five of the last eight games.
Named a 2015 Big Ten Preseason Player to Watch, Conner was ranked as the 17th best player in the Big Ten by TopDrawerSoccer.com prior to the season. The Cary, Illinois, native did not disappoint, starting all 17 games he played in and finished the year with five points on one goal and three assists.
