November 20, 2024 | Men's Soccer
CORVALLIS – The Oregon State men's soccer team claimed a host of WCC Postseason Awards, the West Coast Conference announced Wednesday.
Sergi Solans and Arnau Farnos headlined the Beaver honorees, as Solans was named Offensive Player of the Year and Farnos was tabbed as Midfielder of the Year. Solans was also selected as the conference's Freshman of the Year.
Solans and Farnos, were joined on the All-WCC First Team by Nicklas Lund. Tomas Bedouret, Enzo Newman and Fabian Straudi all made the WCC Second Team, while Pere Belmonte and Ellis Spikner were both All-WCC Honorable Mentions. Solans and Joseph Ogwang made the All-Freshman Team.
Solans is having one of the best offensive seasons in program history. His 14 goals are tied for the fifth-highest single-season total in program history, and his 31 points are the sixth-most by a Beaver in a single year. Solans is currently fourth in the nation and first in the WCC in goals scores.
Farnos is second in the conference with nine goals. He needs one more to move into a tie for 10th on Oregon State's single-season list.
Nicklas Lund has been a consistent force on the Beaver back line, starting all 17 of OSU's game at centerback.
Bedouret has made 14 starts, and has two goals and two assists on the season, while Enzo Newman has started every match and has amassed six assists. Fabian Straudi has 12 assists this season, one short of tying the Oregon State record.
Belmonte has started every game this season, and has two goals to go with three assists. Spikner has three goals and seven assists on the year. Ogwang has made seven starts in eight appearances.
