Westlake, Ohio – Earning his first career all-conference selection, Oberlin College men's soccer center midfielder Christopher Plenca has been named to the North Coast Athletic Conference Third Team following a strong season on the pitch. 

"I am really happy and proud of Chris. He worked very hard this past off-season in the weight room and on the field, and his efforts really paid off. I am excited for the next two seasons of Chris' career!" Head Coach Blake New adds. 

A sophomore from New Jersey, Plenca balanced the midfield with a pair of goals this year. Plenca played in all 17 matches, making 13 starts, and was third on the team in minutes played with 1,272. Each of Plenca's goals helped Oberlin en route to victories against Heidelberg (4-2) and Wooster (2-1).
