FAYETTEVILLE, NC – Christopher Newport men's soccer player Michael Caro was named the USA South's Player of the Year and six of his teammates were named All-USA South, the conference announced Wednesday.

Caro, a senior from Alexandria, VA, helped the Captains offense this fall. He led the USA South in points and goals this year as he has totaled 20 goals and 41 points so far this season. He also owns a team-best five game-winning goals. It's also the second straight year Caro has been named First Team All-Conference.

Also earning First Team All-USA South honors was midfielder Brian Tweed, defenders Bryan Davis and Matt Page and goalkeeper Matt Tengs.

Tweed, a junior from Springfield, VA, is second on the team in goals with seven and points with 17. He also has scored two game-winners on the year.

Davis and Page, First Team selections once again, have been mainstays on defense for Head Coach Steve Shaw. Davis, a junior, has scored once and assisted on another. Page, a senior, has scored three times and dished out two assists. The duo has helped the Captains defense allow just over one goal per game on the year.

Matt Tengs, the USA South's Rookie of the Year in 2006, was also a First Team selection for the second straight year. He is 8-6 in goal for CNU with four shutouts, 40 saves and a 1.61 GAA.
