The Thomas Jefferson boys' soccer program has announced its award winners for the 2012 season.

Quinton Gardner, a senior forward, landed the varsity offensive award, along with the varsity coach's award

“The coach's award was presented to Quinton for his hard work and dedication to the sport of soccer,” Michael “Doc” Kulish, Thomas Jefferson's head coach, said.

“He was able to come off the bench to motivate and inspire the team to perform at their best.”

Jared Raszewski, a senior defender, was the recipient of this year's varsity defensive award.

At the junior varsity level, sophomore forward Derek Rothey was the offensive award winner, while sophomore defender Eric Coholan was the defensive award winner.
