Congratulations to Danny Browne and Pat Sodums, who were both named to the Mid-State Athletic Conference Men's Soccer All-Star Team for the Fall 2009 season.

Browne, a sophomore from Manchester, England, led the Spartans in scoring with 10 goals and 2 assists from his defensive sweeper position. The team's captain provided great leadership for a team that narrowly missed a NJCAA Region III post-season spot. This is Browne's second appearance on this squad…as he also was named to the 2007 MSAC All-Star team. He is currently majoring in Liberal Arts & Science at CCC.

Joining Browne as an All-Star is freshman midfielder Pat Sodums. The Spencer native scored one goal and had four assists in helping to anchor the midfield for the Spartans. He is currently majoring in Business Administration at CCC.

Congratulations to Lauren Dunster, who was named to the Mid-State Athletic Conference Women's Soccer All-Star Team for the Fall 2009 season. The freshman sweeper led the Spartans in tackles and pass interceptions…and was counted on to assist in neutralizing many opponent's top scorers in a very competitive NJCAA Region III schedule. The Auburn, NY native transferred from Canisius College and is currently majoring in Liberal Arts & Science at CCC.
