InTouch Credit Union All-Academic Team
IRVING, Texas - Marshall men's soccer senior Trevor Starcher was named to the Conference USA All-Academic team, the conference office announced Wednesday.
Conference USA's commitment to excellence continues to show as 12 student-athletes have been named to the 2016 InTouch Credit Union C-USA Men's Soccer All-Academic Team. All nine programs are represented.
This latest honor for the senior from Hurricane, W.Va., came one day after being named second team All-Conference USA.
"No surprise that Trevor (Starcher) is also on the all-academic team as well," Herd coach Bob Gray said. "He never does anything half way. I wouldn't hesitate to say he might be one of the most complete athletes to put on a Marshall uniform.
"I would put him right up there with Chad Pennington. I always thought Chad was a class act and so is Trevor."
Starcher has been a leader on and off the field. He has been a great example in the classroom during his entire career as a four-time member of the C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll and a four-time recipient of the C-USA Academic Medal. He has maintained a 3.90 GPA as a management and marketing double major with a minor in entrepreneurship. Starcher started every game this season and led the team in points with 10, and tied for the team lead in goals with three and assists with four. On Oct. 28, Starcher was also named CoSIDA Academic All-District and is in good standing to receive more academic honors from Conference USA.
The C-USA Commissioner's Honor Roll and Academic Medalists will be announced in the spring of 2017.
