ANDY STEVENSON

MATER DEI

Sr., D

The Monarchs moved to the top of the county top 10 this season, largely because of their defense, which was led by Stevenson, the Trinity League's defensive MVP. In nine of their last 13 games, the Monarchs gave up one goal or less, posting seven shutouts during that span

FRANKIE BASTONE
