JENKINTOWN, PA—Manor College Men's Soccer sophomore goalkeeper Emanuel Caire (Philadelphia, PA/Fels) finished in the top-50 in multiple 2017 NJCAA Division I statistical categories.
Caire's 96 saves were tied for 23rd in NJCAA Division I Men's Soccer. His 6.00 shots per game allowed (96 in 16 games) were tied for 38th. He was recently named the 2017 Eastern Pennsylvania Athletic Conference (EPAC) Division I Player of the Year.
As a team, Manor finished eighth (out of 149 schools) with 151 saves. The Blue Jays' 217 shots were tied for 45th and 12.1 shots per game (217 in 18 games) were 45th.
Manor eighth-year head coach John Dempster on Caire and the Blue Jays team appearing in the 2017 NJCAA Division I Men's Soccer statistical ranking: "This past season was the best season we've had since our last conference championship season in 2013. I truly believe that we are ready to take that next step and get back to the playoffs next season. My coaching staff is great at getting these young men prepared for college level soccer. Emanuel Caire, our starting goalkeeper became an instant leader this year; he with the help of our other two captains (Damian Schweizer and Arthur "Trey" Greenwood), are leaving this team in a good place for our freshman to succeed."
The Blue Jays finished the season 8-9-1 under Dempster.
