SEGUIN, Texas -- Fifth-year senior forward Luis Green (Monterrey, Mexico/Smithson Valley) of the Texas Lutheran men's soccer team has been named to the United Soccer Coaches All-America Third Team, the organization announced on Wednesday.

A senior forward from Monterrey, Mexico, Luis Green closed out his career in style, rewriting the conference record books en route to claiming his league record fifth-straight SCAC Offensive Player-of-the-Year honor. Green finished second in the SCAC in both goals (19) and points (44) and third in game-winning goals (3), shots (71) and shots on goal (39). He capped off his historic career with a five-goal performance against Austin College in a win to bring his career total to an SCAC record 81 goals in just 78 games played. With that effort, he became just the fourth player in conference history, and the first since 2010, to score five or more goals in one contest. Green stands alone with his career marks, leaving Seguin first in SCAC history in goals scored (81), points (182), goals per game (1.04) and points per game (2.33). A nine-time SCAC Offensive Player-of-the-Week honoree during his TLU career, including three times this season, Green finishes his career tied for 10th all-time in NCAA history for career goals. In fact, his 81 goals are the most to cap off a career since Andrew Jenkins of St. Scholastica finished his career with 90 goals back in 2014.

With the honor, Green is now a three-time All-American - also earning the honors in 2018 and 2019 - and the only multi-time All-American in TLU Men's Soccer history. The award is the fourth playing All-America honor in program history. In addition to Green's three honors, TLU Athletics Hall of Famer Roger Gomez was an NAIA Honorable Mention All-American in 1991.

Texas Lutheran finished 8-4-5 on the year, including 4-2-2 in SCAC play.
