Midfielder Keaviano Francis was named Newcomer of the Year, and goalkeeper Seth Wilson earned Goalkeeper of the Year. They and defender Trym Linberg made the First Team; Tiago Campos, Lasse Dahl, Pablo Torre and Mathis Robinand were named to the Second Team.

By the Numbers
  • 7 UNCG players earned All-Conference honors, tied for the most in the SoCon.
  • 2 of the league’s 3 individual player awards went to UNCG.
  • Francis recorded 16 points on 7 goals and 2 assists.
  • Wilson posted a 1.000 goals-against average, 43 saves and 5 shutouts.
Yes, But

Furman also had seven All-Conference selections, and its Wilfer Bustamante won Player of the Year. UNCG’s honors recognize individual achievement, while the Spartans still have to advance through the conference tournament.

State of Play
  • Francis, Wilson and Linberg headline UNCG’s First Team selections.
  • UNCG is scheduled to host No. 6 seed VMI in the SoCon Tournament quarterfinals Thursday at 5 p.m. ET on ESPN+.
What's Next

The Spartans turn their focus to the tournament quarterfinal against VMI, with a chance to build on their conference-leading haul of individual honors and All-Conference selections.

Bottom Line

UNCG’s seven honorees reflect a team effort, but Francis and Wilson’s top awards stand out as the program’s strongest individual recognition heading into postseason play.
