Four members of the Cordova High School boys soccer players were named to the Sierra Valley Conference’s first team.
Out of the quartet, Lancer midfielder Luis Aguilar was named the conference’s Most Valuable Player. A three-year starter, Aguilar had 22 goals and eight assists.
Three other Lancers making the SVC’s first team were forward Miguel Medina, another three-year starter who also had 22 goals this season, midfielder Alex Casal (five goals for the season) and goalie Kevin Bejines, who had 24 saves.
“I was really happy for and proud of the boys this season,” said Cordova head coach Eric McCahon. “It was huge for Luis to receive league MVP… I feel it was well-deserved.”
In addition, McCahon was named the conference’s Coach of the Year. He led the Lancers to a third place finish in conference at 5-3-2 and 12-10-3 overall. Cordova also advanced into the Sac-Joaquin Section Division III playoffs.
