Richie Marquez Tabbed CoSIDA Academic All-District Honoree for Bulldog Men’s Soccer
The College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) announced late last week that University of Redlands men's soccer senior defender Richie Marquez (Pomona, CA) garnered Academic All-District honors for the NCAA Division III. For Marquez, this marks his second-consecutive CoSIDA accolade.
With the laurel, Marquez is the only men's soccer player from the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SCIAC) to land on the CoSIDA Academic All-District Team.
Marquez, the captain of the squad, served as the lynchpin of the Bulldog defense all year long. While helping the squad compile a goals-against-average of 0.85 on the year, he was integral in solidifying the defense which earned six shutouts. A starter in all 16 contests, he led the Maroon and Gray to a second-place finish in the SCIAC regular season standings.
As a member of the Academic All-District Team, Marquez now advances onto the national ballot for possible CoSIDA All-America recognition.
