Senior Johnny Alcaraz of Santa Barbara and sophomore Dillon Barna of Phoenix, Arizona have been named to the All-Golden State Athletic Conference team for their contributions to Westmont men’s soccer in 2007.

“It goes without saying that the attacking pieces we had in our team were built around Johnny,” said head coach Dave Wolf. “The same is true of the defending pieces – they were built around Dillon. So these two players were really the critical cornerstones for the attack and defense respectively.”

Alcaraz scored 11 goals and added five assists to lead the Warriors this season with 27 points (two points for a goal, one point for an assist). Alcaraz has led the Warriors in both goals and points each of his three years at Westmont. Alcaraz’ 1.59 points per game and 0.65 goals per game was fifth best in the GSAC this season.

“Johnny had a terrific year, especially considering the pressure he played under on a game-by-game basis to produce for our team,” said Wolf. “It is remarkable that he was able to produce the kind of stats that he did in a league that was as tough as ours.”

Barna, a skilled six feet three inch central defender, proved to be a frustrating barrier to opponents this season.

“Dillon drew with regularity the most difficult marking assignment every game that we played in a league that was chock full of really outstanding dynamic attacking players,” said Wolf. “He was, I think, as good as any central defender in the entire league in shutting people down in man-verse-man situations. He also added a nice organiza¬tional piece to his playing portfolio this year and we are excited about what he will be capable of giving to our program the next couple of years.”
