Eight SBCC men's soccer players will continue their careers at four-year schools.

Kebba Nyang, an All-Southern Cal midfielder for the Vaqueros, will play for Palm Beach Atlantic, an NCAA Div. 2 school in West Palm Beach, Fla. Mirza Dizdarevic (Sweden) and Simon Sebbah (France) have committed to West Texas A&M, a school where SBCC's John Sisterson coached early in his career.

Kyran Johal, a first-team All-WSC choice from London, England, accepted an offer from Hawaii-Hilo, an NCAA Div. 2 school. Four former Vaqueros were seniors on the 2015 Vulcans' squad.

Johan Mauritzson, another first-team All-WSC selection, will play for C.W. Post of Long Island University (N.Y.). Haydn Dickinson and Ryan McGee are both heading to Florida with Dickinson going to NCAA Div. 2 St. Leo University and McGee playing for Webber International, an NAIA school in Babson Park.

Aaron Aaberg, a sophomore midfielder from Sweden, is deciding between Azusa Pacific and UCSB.

The Vaqueros went 11-4-6 last fall, winning five of their last six to finish fourth in the WSC at 7-3-6.
