The Lyon College Scots
received three All-TranSouth Conference nods for their
play on the field in 2006, all with a Texas flavor.
Senior Steve Banks was
the team's only first-team selection while freshman
phenom Greg Buford and freshman defender Tobi Osinowo
were named to the second team. All three players are
from cities in Texas.
Banks, a midfielder from
Frisco, Tex., had five goals and four assists for a
total of 14 points in 2006. The three-time, first-team
All-Conference selection (2004, 2005, 2006) is Lyon
College's all-time leader in points and assists.
Buford, a forward from
Mesquite, Tex., was the Scots' freshman scoring
sensation this season, setting single-season school
records for points (22) while tying a single-season
record for goals (8).
Osinowo, a defender from
Irving, Tex., was a key defender in the Scots backfield,
who also punched in a goal and had an assist in 2006.
The trio helped lead Lyon
to an 8-8-1 record this season, including the program's
first wins over Lambuth and Union.
