MANSFIELD, MASS – The Northeast-10 Conference announced its annual Man and Woman of the Year nominees on Monday afternoon.
Each nominee is a senior student-athlete that has excelled in all areas of their collegiate careers – on the playing surface, in the classroom and in the community. The two winners are set to be announced at the NE10 Banquet at Fratello's Events in the Millyard in Manchester, NH on June 3.
