Brian Fekete Named Daktronics Honorable Mention All-American

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - University of Tampa men's soccer player Brian Fekete was named an honorable mention All-American by Daktronics.

The junior defender from Plant City, Fla., started 13 games for the Spartans and finished with a goal and three assists. He was also the leader of a Spartan defensive unit that notched a shutout of SSC champion and national finalist Lynn University.

In 2010, Fekete was also a second-team all-Sunshine State Conference selection while being a first-team all-South Region choice by Daktronics.

Sports information directors from NCAA Division II schools and conferences sponsoring men's soccer selected the Daktronics All-America teams. The process begins at the regional level with all first team All-Region picks advancing to the national ballot. This is the sixth year Daktronics has sponsored the NCAA Division II men's soccer All-America and All-Region teams.

The team is sponsored by Daktronics, Inc., an acknowledged world leader in scoring, timing and programmable display systems for virtually every sport at every level of competition. The team is voted on by the NCAA Division II members of the College Sports Information Directors of America (D2SIDA), with the online nomination and voting process powered by ATHLETICSITE.COM.
