BUIES CREEK, N.C. – Alex Caskey and Charlie Reiter of the Davidson men's soccer team were named to the 2009 North Carolina Collegiate Sports Information Association (NCCSIA) University Division All-State Men's Soccer Team. Reiter was the lone unanimous selection.
The team consists of NCAA Division I student-athletes from North Carolina colleges and universities. Nominees were submitted by North Carolina sports information professionals. NCCSIA members voted for the all-state teams.
The All-State soccer teams include one goalkeeper, three defenders, four midfielders and three forwards. Teams are selected for men and women in both the college and university (NCAA Division I) divisions.
Among the 11 honored, nine, were also named to the NSCAA all-region teams, while Indy Smith of UNC Wilmington also added third-team NSCAA All-America honors. Adam Gross of Charlotte and Elon teammates Steven Kinney and Justin Wyatt earned all-state honors for the third time in their careers.
Colonial Athletic Association champion UNC Wilmington, NCAA tournament participant Charlotte and Davidson placed two players each on the all-state unit.
A native of Dunwoody, Ga., Caskey continued to anchor the Davidson midfield in 2009 and earned his first National Soccer Coaches Association of America All-South Region selection (second team). He was also named to the All-SoCon First Team for the second consecutive season. Caskey served as a team tri-captain and finished the season with seven goals and two assists for 16 points. He only saw rest in two matches, playing all but 20 minutes of the season.
Caskey led the Wildcats with six goals in eight contests in September to earn SoCon Player of the Month honors. His top performance came against then-No. 25 South Carolina when he scored two goals (including the game-winner) and an assist to earn a place on the Soccer America Men's Team of the Week.
Hailing from Westport, Conn., Reiter scored 12 goals and eight assists for 32 points after starting all 18 matches, earning NSCAA All-South Region, All-Southern Conference First Team honors and SoCon Player of the Year honors. Reiter ranked among the national leaders on offense, finishing the season ranked sixth in points per game (1.78), eighth in goals per game (0.67) and 29th in assists per game (0.44). His scoring total was the best single-season mark for a Davidson player since Norbet scored 42 points (19g, 4a) in 2001.
Reiter played in every single match the past four years, starting 48 of 77 matches. Reiter was also successful in the classroom, as he was named to the 2009 CoSIDA/ESPN the Magazine Academic All-America First Team.
