Three Bucs earn All-Region honors from the D2CCA

JACKSON, Tenn. – Christian Brothers University men's soccer placed three of its players on the Division 2 Conference Commissioners Association (D2CCA) All-South Region Team when the organization announced the awards on Tuesday. Sophomore forward Russell Brown, senior defender George Chandler and graduate goalkeeper Vicent Sanchis Olmedo were all named to the second team.

Brown earned Second Team All-Region honors after his First Team All-GSC selection and twice being named GSC Player of the Week. He ranked third in the conference in goals scored (11), points (24) and game-winning goals (4). His last game winner of the 2024 season came in the second overtime of the quarterfinals of the GSC Championship. He scored two hat tricks on the road to West Alabama and AUM while playing under 60 minutes in both matches. His clinical finishing boosted CBU to the team with the second-most goals scored in the conference (42) by the end of the season.

Chandler was dubbed Second Team All-Region after a Second Team All-GSC selection and once being named GSC Player of the Week. He scored one goal and assisted on four more from his fullback position. He logged the third-most minutes (1,291) for CBU this season in 17 matches played and 14 starts. He was a key part of a backline that allowed the fewest goals (16) in the GSC and recorded the 16th-best team goals against average (0.869) in Division II this year.

Sanchis Olmedo was selected Second Team All-Region after being named the GSC Co-Defensive Player of the Year, earning First Team All-GSC honors and thrice being chosen as the GSC Goalkeeper of the Week. He is the nation's statistical leader in save percentage (0.857) at the DII level. He also ranks third in the country in goals against average (0.524). He did not allow more than one goal in any of his 14 matches played this season and kept a clean sheet on seven occasions.
