Hall of Fame
Gary Smallshaw (Men’s Soccer ’92) was a three-time All-America (1988-90) defender for the Gannon men’s soccer program in the late 1980s. Considered one of the best defenders to ever play for Gannon, Smallshaw landed a spot on the all-region team every season (1987-90) during his collegiate career. In addition, he was named NCAA Division II Defender of the Year as a senior.
Smallshaw anchored a Gannon defense that helped goalkeeper Terry Waldorf set the school record for lowest career goals against average (0.80). The Golden Knights set single-season records for fewest goals allowed (14) in 1988 and 1990 with Smallshaw in the back. The program also advanced to three consecutive NCAA Division II Final Fours (1988-90) during Smallshaw’s career.
