Edison, NJ – Sophomore Marcellin Gohier (Pouance, France) was voted as the 2017 Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference's Goalkeeper of the Year by the league's head coaches, the MAAC announced Tuesday evening. He was also tabbed as the All-MAAC First Team netminder.

In addition, senior Luke Greaves (Bolton, Lancashire, England / Accrington & Rossendale) and junior Lucas Da Silva (West Palm Beach, FL / Palm Beach Atlantic) were selected to the All-MAAC Second Team.
 
Gohier was stellar in his first season in Riverdale. He collected eight wins in 2017 and went 6-3-1 in conference play. During the regular season, he led the MAAC with a .862 save percentage and a 0.59 goals-against average. At one point in the year, he held the second-best save percentage in all of Division I soccer. His six individual shutouts this season are tied for the third-most ever in a single season. He is the first Jasper to be named to the First Team since Abraham Bartoah in 2015.

Greaves earns his first postseason nomination after he helped stabilize a Jasper back line that allowed a program-low 16 goals in 18 games this year. A starter on defense since 2015, Greaves started in all 15 games he appeared in this season.

To be eligible for the MAAC All-Academic team, a student-athlete must have completed two semesters at their institution and hold a cumulative grade-point average over 3.20 on a 4.0 scale.
