North Carolina senior midfielder Mauricio Pineda is on the MAC Hermann Trophy Watch List, the most prestigious individual award in college soccer. But you wouldn’t know it. “There's a quiet confidence about him when he plays,” former teammate Cameron Lindley said. “He never will speak about it. He'll never talk about himself. “It's always team first.”
