Coastal Bend College Men's Soccer proudly celebrates the outstanding achievements of five student-athletes who earned Region 14 postseason honors, recognizing their exceptional performances during an impressive soccer season.
Andres Caicedo was named to the Region 14 First Team, solidifying his role as a cornerstone of the CBC defense. Since arriving at Coastal Bend College, the Colombian defender has been a model of consistency, strength, and reliability. Caicedo anchored a defense that recorded an impressive 11 shutouts this season, and his commanding presence in the back was instrumental to the Cougars' success throughout the year.
Joining him on the Region 14 First Team is Jake Mangan, who earns the honor for the second consecutive season. Mangan delivered a dominant offensive campaign, finishing first in Region 14 in both goals and total points. The sophomore tallied 11 goals and seven assists, totaling 29 points, and his outstanding performance also earned him Region 14 MVP Runner-Up recognition.
Juan Valencia Vacca also secured a place on the Region 14 First Team for the second year in a row. Valencia recorded two goals and two assists this season, but his impact extended well beyond the stat sheet. Known for his tireless work rate and elite playmaking ability, Valencia consistently controlled the midfield, creating space in tight areas while contributing on both sides of the ball.
Harry Edwards earned Region 14 Second Team honors after another stellar season leading the Cougars. A team captain for the second straight year, Edwards featured in every match and contributed two goals and five assists. His leadership, consistency, and presence on and off the pitch have been invaluable to the program's continued success.
Rounding out the honors, Tim Teicher was named to the Region 14 Honorable Mention Team following an exceptional season in goal. Teicher's performances garnered national attention, ranking second nationally in save percentage, third nationally in total saves, and first in Region 14 in saves. He also finished second in Region 14 in save percentage and third in goals against average, further cementing his reputation as one of the top goalkeepers in the region and nation.
Congratulations to all of these Cougars on their well-earned recognition. Their hard work, dedication, and excellence continue to elevate CBC Men's Soccer and represent Coastal Bend College with pride.
