DAVIS, Calif. -- UC Davis senior midfielder Dylan Curtis was named to the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award All-Senior All-America first team, it was announced Friday night.

The two All-America teams are determined by the final vote tallies for the 10 finalists of the award. Five student-athletes are named to each team. Curtis was third in the final voting, which were submitted by coaches, national media and fans. Curtis was second in the nationwide fan voting.

Curtis earned his spot as a finalist for the prestigious award with his all-around success during his Aggie career. The award recognizes senior student-athletes in nine different sports who excel in four areas: classroom, character, community and competition.

A two-year team captain, Curtis will earn his degree in managerial economics later this month. His efforts both on and off the field earned him CoSIDA/ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District and All-America honors this season. In addition, his school-record 11 assists helped him to capture the Big West Conference Midfielder of the Year award.

In addition, Curtis was recently named to the Far West All-Region first team along with teammate Quincy Amarikwa. The duo will find out if they earn All-America honors following this weekend's College Cup.

UC Davis finished its most successful NCAA Division I season with an overall record of 13-5-4 and a win over Denver in the first round of the NCAA tournament.
