Seth Mahlmiester, Will Pierce, and Kai Tamashiro are recognized as the top 3 performers of the season with Seth Mahlmeister being the Paradise Player of the season.
Seth scored 10 goals and 8 assists over the 13 game season, totaling over 18 goal contributions. An amazing statistic and puts him as the top scorer in Paradise history.
Will Pierce had an outstanding season as an attacking midfielder. Taking the game into his own hands and scoring perhaps the best goal of the season, taking the ball from midfield and then shooting from outside the box with his weak foot. He scored 7 and assisted 3.
Kai Tamashiro came in clutch. Scoring when it mattered most, and scoring the most important goal in Paradise history, the goal vs St. Petersburg FC that sent the Paradise to the playoffs and won the division title. Kai scored 5 and assisted 4.
These 3 players were a huge part of the team’s success and we wish them the best as they return to their colleges. Catch Seth Mahlmeister scoring goals for Purdue University, Will Pierce for Fairfield University, and Kai Tamashiro for UNC Chapel Hill.
Honorable Mentions
