Bowling Green State University men's soccer standout Joey Akpunonu has earned yet another honor. The junior defender has been named to the United Soccer Coaches All-North Region First Team.
It's been quite an eventful week for Akpunonu, who was named to the Academic All-America® First Team, presented by College Sports Communicators, on Wednesday (Dec. 7). Then, on Thursday (Dec. 8), he was one of 44 players across the nation invited to participate in the adidas Major League Soccer College Showcase.
A native of Toledo, Ohio (St. John's Jesuit), Akpunonu started all 16 matches for the Falcons in 2022, and was named to the All-MAC First Team.
