Men’s soccer player takes home prestigious NJCAA award – Manhattan College Athletics

Men’s Soccer
The Manhattan College men’s soccer program already seems to be taking a leap from having recruited Thiago Jose Da Silva, a standout midfielder from Monroe College of the National Junior College Athletic Association. The Brazil native was recently named the 2023-24 recipient of the David Rowlands Award given to the NJCAA Male Student-Athlete of the Year. 

The news of Da Silva winning this prestigious award garnered by one male student-athlete nationally every year is a win for Manhattan College, Monroe College, and Da Silva himself. The merits of the David Rowland Award are based on hard work, discipline, ethics, and excellence in community college athletics, as epitomized by Rowland while serving as baseball coach at Truman College in Chicago in the 1970s and 1980s. Da Silva is the second men’s soccer player to take home the award over its 32-year period of existence, with the other recipient being another Monroe College men’s soccer alum in Tobias Pellio of the class of 2019. 
THIAGO ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

“He’s an engine room guy,” Scott said. “What I mean by that is he’s going to set the tempo and connect all units of the field. Those moments when you need a leader to step up, he’s got that in him and he has already earned the respect of the group.”

Da Silva follows in the footsteps of other great Monroe College players who chose to play at Manhattan College. He joins the likes of Tony Yeboah, Ensa Sanneh, Ronaldo Da Silva among Manhattan players from the Monroe pipeline. Another Monroe player, Felipe Jaime Arruda, will get to showcase his skills while playing alongside his lifelong friend Da Silva next season at Manhattan.

“When we recruited him the first thing he said was ‘I want to help this program win championships,'” Scott said. “This kid is going to be the gold standard for those who want to go places in life.”
