Oakton
sophomore Jaroslaw Kociolek was named to the 2006
Men's Division I Junior College All-America Second Team by the National
Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) for his outstanding
accomplishments in men's soccer.
A
Des Plaines resident and graduate of Downers Grove North High School,
Kociolek anchored Oakton's stingy defense, which posted a 1.64 goals
against average.
"Other
coaches recognize that we have a good program and some talented individual
players," said head coach Steve Brody. "We're all very proud of Jaroslaw's
achievement."
In
addition to being one of 50 players invited to the NSCAA All-America
luncheon in Indianapolis on Saturday, Jan. 13, Kociolek also was named
to the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Region
IV Division I Soccer All-Region First Team.
The
Raiders finished the 2006 season with a 9-6-1 record, losing to College
of DuPage in the NJCAA Region IV men's soccer semifinals.
