AKRON, Ohio - University of Akron men's soccer junior D Carlo Ritaccio (Westbury, N.Y.) was named by TopDrawerSoccer.com to its Preseason Best XI Third-Team squad.
A year after garnering second-team all-league honors, Ritaccio, who started each of the 15 matches he appeared in for Akron in 2019, was elevated to a First-Team All-MAC recipient as a sophomore. He helped anchor a Zips' defensive unit that has posted four shutouts on the campaign, while adding an assist on the strength of eight shots, including three on frame.
