    It's a bit odd that they have a male and female category for University Athlete of the Year, but they don't separate them in any other category. Still think there are too many awards, but it appears they have cut down on the amount from last year.

    One category I think they should add is a "Field Athlete of the Year". Only one personal award in the entire list went to a Field athlete, and that was the Lifetime Achievement award
