In 8 years of Ohio Athletic Conference competition, Myers’ squads won 4titles and twice finished in second place. Myers was named Ohio Coach of the Yearin 1971 and 1973.As Bucky Stultz, Myers’ first All-America soccer player, would note at his mentor’smemorial service, “He had a rare talent. He would quietly plant in a youngperson’s mind the seed of an idea or plan. His cultivating was done so subtly, it wasusually several years before that seed would blossom. Then the realization wouldcome: It was Fred Myers who added the spark, the vitality, that means so much inall our lives.”The tournament’s Most Valuable Player receives the Dick Gauthier Award, honoringone of Ohio Wesleyan’s greatest fans. Son of the legendary George Gauthier,Ohio Wesleyan’s Hall of Fame football coach, Dick Gauthier was a leader in campuscommunityrelations.2010 OWU Men’s SoccerDICK GAUTHIER AWARDS (MYERS TOURNAMENT MVP)1982 Brian Deloatch, Castleton 1996 Jason Chadima, OWU1983 Mark Weber, Frostburg 1997 Sean Brady, OWU1984 Rick Wyman, OWU 1998 Kulu Moyo, Kenyon1985 Domenic Romanelli, OWU 1999 Misha Sher, OWU1986 Tom McNamara, OWU 2000 Glen Sullivan, OWU1987 Drew Dimatos, OWU 2001 Chris Heslep, John Carroll1988 Bob Barnes, OWU 2002 Chris Vorenkamp, OWU1989 Clay Smith, OWU 2003 Jeff Krigbaum, OWU1990 Andy Kessinger, OWU 2004 Garrett Silvert-Noftle, OWU1991 Andy Kessinger, OWU 2005 Ryan Martin, OWU1992 Mike Pepe, OWU 2006 Craig Neal, OWU1993 Kyle Kosmala, OWU 2007 Jerry Saintil, Kean1994 Jim Finn, OWU 2008 Kevin McGowan, OWU1995 Kenneth Hoey, Methodist 2009 Eric Laipple, OWUadidas ® INVITATionAL HISTORYYear Champion Runner-up Third Fourth1992 Ohio Wesleyan Fontbonne Capital Ursinus1993 Ohio Wesleyan Methodist Wittenberg Lycoming1994 Ohio Wesleyan Wheaton Rhodes Wittenberg1995 + Ohio Wesleyan Va.
