MILWAUKEE - Senior forward Dan Hosko was selected to the Capital One Academic All-District First Team for District 6. This is Hosko's second time named as an All-District selection as he was selected to the Second Team in 2010. He has a GPA of 3.77 and is an architectural engineering major. The teams are selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Hosko is now eligible to be selected as an Academic All-American, which will be announced later this month. The teams recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances athletically and in the classroom.
Hosko led the Northern Athletics Conference in goals (11), assists (9) and points (31). He entered the final week of October in 24th place among all NCAA Division III players in assists and assists per game. During the 2010 season, Hosko was named All-NAC and Third Team All-Central Region by the National Soccer Coaches Association.
The Raiders reached the Northern Athletics Conference championship before falling to Dominican 4-0 in the title game, held in River Forest, Ill. MSOE shut out Concordia-Wisconsin 2-0 in the semifinals to reach the final game. Hosko and junior Mat Braden recorded the two goals for the Raiders in that game against the Falcons. In the first round, Hosko scored both of MSOE's goals in a 2-1 victory over Benedictine. The Raiders ended the season with a 12-8-1 overall record and went 8-3 in NAC play. MSOE started their NAC season with six straight wins.
The Academic All-District teams are divided into eight geographic districts across the United States and Canada. This is the first year of the expanded Academic All-America program as CoSIDA moves from recognizing a University Division (Division I) and a College Division (all non Division I) and doubles the number of scholar-athletes honored. The teams include NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II and NCAA Division III participants, while the College Division team combines NAIA, Canadian and two-year schools.
