Jersey City, NJ -- Men's soccer senior midfielder Javier Plaza has been named to the D2CCA All-American Third Team. Plaza finished the season with six goals and 14 assists for a team-high 26 points. His 14 assists led the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC). In addition, his total assists were tied 5th in the nation and his assists per game ratio of 0.78 ranks 4th at the Division II level. 

Communication professionals from NCAA Division II schools and conferences selected the three D2 CCA All-America teams. The process begins at the regional level with all first-team all-region picks advancing to the national ballot. A total of 39 student-athletes filled out the three teams. The Division II Conference Commissioners Association encourages and promotes Division II athletics and high standards of sportsmanship as important elements of higher education.

Javier is only the fourth player in the history of the program who has been named among the 39 best player in the nation, following the footsteps of Felix Horn (Second-Team, 2011), Marco Likos (First-Team, 2012), and Finn Reese (Third-Team, 2017).
