Seniors Luis Ocejo and
Kai Eckenrode were named to the Capital One Academic All-District® Men's Soccer
Team, selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA)
on Thursday afternoon. The accolades
recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances
athletically and in the classroom.
This
marks the second straight year that Ocejo has earned Academic All-District
honors, adding to the defender's extensive academic achievements at Stetson
University. Last season he was also named
Third Team NSCAA Scholar All-American, and has earned A-Sun All-Academic honors
each of his three years as a Hatter.
This season he was one of only 30 student-athletes named as a candidate
for the Senior CLASS Award.
Eckenrode,
meanwhile, earns Academic All-District honors for the first time after leading
Stetson with five goals during his senior campaign. The forward is a two-time A-Sun All-Academic
honoree, and was named a Conference Scholar as a junior in 2011. A communication studies major at Stetson,
Eckenrode was one of just two forwards to earn Academic All-District 4 honors
this year.
