Horne named to D3kicks.com All-Region Team 
After earning All-Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) honors earlier this year, Centre College men's senior soccer player David Horne (Louisville, Ky.) has been named to the D3kicks.com All-Central Region Second Team.
Horne was one of only six players, and the only non-Trinity University or DePauw University player, from the SCAC to be named to the all-region first, second or third teams. Recently, Horne was named to his second consecutive All-SCAC First Team after helping lead Centre to a 12-4-1 overall record and 6-3 mark in the SCAC.
The senior defender, who was a National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA)/Adidas NCAA Division III Men's All-South Central Region Team selection in 2005, was second on the team in goals scored with six and added four assists for 16 total points.
Horne was named the SCAC Defensive Player-of-the-Week once this season and was also selected to the Kiwanis Classic All-Tournament Team. Along with being named to the All-SCAC first team the last two year, Horne was also a second team selection as a sophomore.
"David has been the hardest working player in our program and he deserves this honor by D3kicks.com," Centre head coach Jeb Burch said.
Burch believes Horne has the ability to play professionally after graduation and is interested to see what happens at the combine.
"I look forward to David's combine with the United Soccer Leagues (USL) and hope his is drafted as a professional. He has joined an elite group of Centre players capable of playing at the next level and I am excited to see D3kicks.com reinforce what we at Centre have known all along, that David is one of the better defenders in the country," Burch added.
This year marks the first year of existence for D3kicks.com, making this the first ever All-Regional Teams. Each region consists of a first, second and third team, with each team made up of a goalkeeper, three defenders, four midfielders and three forwards.
