Ten student-athletes have been named by Commissioner Doug Elgin as the honorees for this fall and Southern Illinois senior nose tackle Tony Colletti was one of the 10 selected.

In order to be eligible for the award, the student-athlete must be in good academic standing, must demonstrate good citizenship through good sportsmanship and significant community service, and must participate in a sport, during the season of recognition. The Valley will recognize 10 student-athletes three times annually (fall, winter, spring), for a total of 30 honorees. Institutions select their Good Neighbor Award honorees.
