Torrey Pines H.S. Alum Named NCAA Soccer’s Best Player (NBC)

She's still in college but Catarina Macario might already be the best soccer player in America.

Macario, a junior at Stanford and alumnus of Torrey Pines High School, won her second straight MAC Hermann Trophy as the Player of the Year. It's basically college soccer's equivalent of the Heisman Trophy.

She was a pretty easy choice. Macario led the nation in goals (32), assists (23) and points (87) and helped Stanford win the national championship. Winning back-to-back Hermann Trophies is usually a good sign that a long successful career is in the cards. (more)
