DAVIS, Calif. - UC Davis senior Quincy Amarikwa added to his season accolades on Friday afternoon when TopDrawerSoccer.com announced that he earned third-team honors in their Teams of the Season, which is their equivalent of an All-America award. The announcement comes just four days after Amarikwa was named the Big West Conference Offensive Player of the Year.
Amarikwa, a native of Bakersfield, completed his final regular season as the team leader in goals scored (15) and points (31). Both are career highs and put him into the top five on the UC Davis career list. Amarikwa also earned two Big West Player of the Week honors and two national team of the week accolades. He also became the first Aggie to receive national player of the week honors on Oct. 13.
