West Virginia’s Sebastian Garcia-Herreros named to all-region team

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Senior defender Sebastian Garcia-Herreros of the West Virginia men’s soccer team has been named to the United Soccer Coaches all-north region third team, the organization announced Monday.

The honor marks the first of the Southwest Ranches, Fla. native’s career.

He finished with two assists in 1,506 minutes played, fifth-most on the team, aiding the back line in producing six shutouts on the year.

In addition to the all-region honor, Garcia-Herreros represented the Mountaineers on the all-MAC second team in November.
