SANTA CLARA, Calif. - The honors keep rolling in for Santa Clara University junior men's soccer player Keith DeVey.
For the second-straight year, the Kula, Hawai'i native was named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District men's soccer team, the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) announced today. DeVey will advance to the national ballot to be considered for Academic All-America® honors, which will be announced in mid-November.
Check out Santa Clara's two key WCC matches this weekend: Friday against San Diego and Sunday against Loyola Marymount.

"Keith exemplifies the true meaning of student-athlete," said SCU head coach Cameron Rast. "He works hard on the field and in the classroom and has the drive it takes to be a success in whatever he chooses to do in life."
The Broncos enter Friday's 7 p.m. match at Buck Shaw Stadium against the University of San Diego with a 12-3-1 overall record and a 6-1-1 mark in WCC matches. The Toreros are 8-4-3 overall and 4-3-1 in league competition. SCU's Sunday afternoon opponent, Loyola Marymount, is tied with San Diego for second-place in the conference standings and plays at San Francisco Friday night.

Santa Clara's two matches against its Southern California rivals this weekend should help clear-up the WCC title race. Two wins by Santa Clara would clinch the program's third title in the last five years and its ninth since 1989. A win Friday over San Diego, combined with a Loyola Marymount loss at San Francisco would ensure at least a share of the title going into Sunday's match against the Lions.
