KANSAS CITY, Kan. -- Senior Jazmine Reeves of the Virginia Tech women’s soccer team has been named as a semifinalist for the MAC Hermann Trophy, as announced by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America on Tuesday afternoon.

Last month, Reeves was named to the All-Atlantic Coast Conference First Team for the 2013 season, the first-ever Hokie to earn that honor.

“We’re extremely proud that Jazmine is being considered for the Hermann Trophy,” Head Coach Chugger Adair said. “She’s been a tremendous player for us all year. She really put a lot of time and effort into making her senior season a special season and she’s been a huge part of our success this year, both on and off the field. We’re extremely proud of her and it’s great to see her recognized on a national level.”

Reeves is the first-ever Virginia Tech player to be named as a semifinalist for the Hermann Trophy.
