Elon forward Dominik Renz was named CAA Player of the Year, leading five Phoenix players to earn all-conference honors. Renz, the league’s scoring leader, is the second Elon player in three years to win the award. The No. 2 South Division seed hosts College of Charleston in the CAA Tournament quarterfinals Thursday.

By the Numbers
  • Renz leads the CAA with 24 points and 10 goals.
  • Five Elon players earned All-CAA honors: two first-team, two second-team and one third-team selections.
  • Goalkeeper Drew Hartman recorded a 0.62 goals-against average and an .818 save percentage, both best among CAA goalkeepers.
State of Play
  • Renz and midfielder Oscar Tonidandel made the first team; forward Jahmir Flowers and goalkeeper Hartman made the second team; defender Magnus Jacobsen made the third team.
  • Elon faces No. 3 seed College of Charleston at 5 p.m. Thursday at Rudd Field.
Bottom Line

Renz’s standout season has made him the centerpiece of an Elon team with recognition across its attack, midfield and defense. The Phoenix now turn those individual honors into a postseason test against Charleston.
