College soccer

CR grad Coverdale earns CAC honor: Four Wesley College men’s soccer players received Capital Athletic Conference All-Conference honors on Wednesday.

That group was led by freshman Adrian Coverdale, a Caesar Rodney High grad, who was named CAC Rookie of the Year.

Coverdale is the first Wolverine to earn CAC Rookie of the Year honors since Will Mileski two years ago. Coverdale led the Wolverines in goals with 10 goals, finishing with 21 points.

He also was selected to the All-CAC first team.

Joining Coverdale were second-team all-conference selections Mileski, a junior, and seniors R.J. Dina and Tobi Sowande.

Mileski had eight goals and seven assists to lead Wesley in points with 23. Dina and Sowande solidified the midfield for the Wolverines and captained the team to their best conference record (6-3) since joining the CAC.

Ex-Rider Moore also honored: Caesar Rodney High grad Janiah Moore, a freshman on the Wesley women’s soccer team, was a second-team selection on the all-CAC squad.

The first-year forward led the Wolverines and finished second in the conference with 13 goals and third in the conference with 29 points. Moore finished the season with four game-winning goals and three multi-goal games, including a four-goal performance in her collegiate debut against Cairn.
