Player Of the Year Honors: (as awarded by National Racquetball/Racquetball Magazine/IRT tour).

My records are very spotty here. There apparently hasn't been much emphasis on this award over the years, since I havn't even heard mention of these three awards in the last 5 years. They were announced for 2004-5 and are on the website.
