Panagos is Truman’s first men's soccer player to earn the GLVC Offensive Player of the Year award and the program's first major conference award recipient since former head coach Duke Cochran was named Co-Coach of the Year in 2022.
The junior started all 16 regular season matches and played 1,312 minutes for the Bulldogs. He led the GLVC overall with 14 goals and 29 points while ranking third with 49 shots, and 26 shots on goal.
Panagos was also among the conference's leading offensive players during GLVC competition. He ranked second with 11 goals, third with 23 points and 44 shots and fourth with 23 shots on goal in conference matches.
His regular season included a hat trick in Truman's 3-3 draw with Lincoln, Sept. 20, and two goals in the Bulldogs' 2-0 road victory over Upper Iowa, Oct. 7.
Panagos converted Truman's opening attempt in the penalty-kick shootout against second-seeded Maryville. The Bulldogs advanced 4-3 in the shootout following a 1-1 draw, earning the program's first trip to the GLVC Tournament semifinals.
