Each year, the Bradley Department of Athletics recognizes the athletic accomplishments of its top performing student-athletes by announcing the annual Bradley Varsity Club Men's and Women's Most Outstanding Athlete Awards. At the conclusion of each athletics year, a list of finalists is developed and votes are solicited from fans, media, head coaches and senior athletics staff to determine the winners.

The selection of the 2016-17 Men's and Women's Most Outstanding Athletes will include a three-day, online fan vote for five finalists in each gender. Please find below the support information for each of the five 2016-17 Bradley Varsity Club Men's Most Oustanding Athlete Award finalists, review the information and then click the voting link in the red box above or at the bottom of the page to cast your vote. The poll will remain open until midnight Thursday night and one randomly-selected voter will receive a free Bradley t-shirt. The 2016-17 Varsity Club Men's and Women's Most Outstanding Athletes will be announced Saturday.
