ROCHESTER, N.Y. – The RIT Women's Soccer team received the United Soccer Coaches College Team Ethics and Sportsmanship Silver Award, Tuesday.
The award recognizes teams that exhibit fair play, sporting behavior and adherence to the laws of the game, as reflected by the number of yellow caution cards or red ejection cards they are shown by referees throughout the season based on the number of cards accumulated divided by the number of games played (i.e., 5 cards divided by 20 games played is 0.25 or 25%, which qualifies for a Silver Award).
Through 18 games in 2024, RIT accumulated a total of just three yellow cards and no red cards to average .17 yellow cards per game.
In all, 64 men's and women's teams received either the gold, silver, or bronze version of the College Team Ethics and Sportsmanship Award. Two teams were recipients of the Gold Award, which is given to teams with a percentage of cards ranging from 1-10%. A total of 30 teams claimed the Silver Award, which is given to teams that accumulate a percentage of cards ranging from 11-30%, while the Bronze Award went to 32 teams, which is presented to teams that accumulate a percentage of cards ranging from 31-50%.
