Senior Midfielder

The 6-foot, 165-pound standout played an instrumental role in two come-from-behind victories during the opening games of the NCAA Tournament. Nagy notched an early assist against Quinnipiac and then scored the game-winner with 1:29 left in overtime to spark a 3-2 victory on Thursday night. He rose to the occasion again Sunday night during a Second Round matchup vs. Southern Methodist University in Dallas. The Catamounts faced a two-goal halftime deficit, but Max Murray scored twice before Nagy assisted Garrett Lillie for the game-winner in the 86th minute. Vermont (15-3-2) will host UCLA (12-6-1) in a Sweet 16 clash at 7 p.m. Saturday.
