SAN MARCOS, Calif. – The Cal State San Marcos men's soccer team picked up two All-CCAA honors as Curtis Collazos was named to the first team while Ryan Meinardus was picked as an honorable mention on Wednesday.
Collazos is the first All-CCAA first-team honoree in program history. In 18 games, the midfielder from Culver City has earned 14 points, five goals and four assists with one game-winning goal for the season. Collazos' point total is tied for the eighth most in a single season at CSUSM. This is his second All-CCAA honor after being named an honorable mention in 2022.
Starting all 19 games this season, Meinardus leads CSUSM with 16 points and six goals while tying Collazos for the team lead in assists with four.
