MEN’S SOCCER: LE MOYNE LANDS FOUR ON NSCAA ALL-REGION TEAMS

SYRACUSE
, N.Y. Following the program’s first trip to the NCAA tournament since 1977, four Le Moyne men’s soccer players have been named to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA)/adidas Division II All-New England Region teams. Sophomores Eric Macias (Silver Spring, Md./Wheaton) and Mark Lukowiecki (Edinburgh, Scotland/Queensferry) were named to the first team, senior Tim Mann (Silver Spring, Md./Paint Branch) has been named to the second team and Ryan Cunningham (Baldwinsville, N.Y./Baldwinsville) garnered third team honors.

Lukowiecki keyed the Le Moyne defense in his first season with the Dolphins. A starter in all 22 games, he helped Le Moyne to 11 shutouts and a team goals against average of 1.01. Macias, an offensive-minded midfielder, led Le Moyne with 10 goals, six assists and 26 points in his second season. Mann capped his four-year career at Le Moyne with a 12-6-2 mark, 1.06 goals against average, .814 save percentage and a program-record 10 shutouts. Cunningham scored six goals and assisted on three for 15 points.

Le Moyne (14-6-2, 9-3-1 Northeast-10 Conference) captured its first Northeast-10 Conference Championship in program history and its third NCAA tournament berth. The Dolphins blanked eventual national runner-up Franklin Pierce 1-0 in the conference championship game.
