Three former Colorado College All-Americans – Matt Fechter, Max Grossenbacher and Theo Hooker – are among the 22 student-athletes named to the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference's 30th Anniversary men's soccer team, which was selected in a ballot of current coaches and administrators.
 
Fechter, one of five forwards who were honored, was a four-time first-team all-SCAC selection during his career, one of just nine players in league history to earn the distinction. He also was named the conference's Offensive Player of the Year in both 2011 and 2012, as well as Newcomer of the Year in 2009.
 
Ninth in SCAC history with 121 career points (44 goals and 33 assists), Fechter led the league in total points (47), goals (16) and assists (15) in 2012. His 15 assists ranked third in Division III that season. At the end of his career, Fechter was one of only two players in league history to record double-digit goals and assists in back-to-back seasons.
 
A two-time National Soccer Coaches Association of America (now the United Soccer Coaches) All-American, Fechter capped his career by earning first-team honors as a senior. He was a second-team All-American as a junior as well as an all-region selection all four years.
 
Grossenbacher, a three-time all-SCAC selection, was among the seven midfielders honored.
 
He was tabbed SCAC Offensive Player of the Year in 2015 after becoming just the second player in conference history to lead the league in points (27), goals (9) and assists (9) in a single season, joining Fechter on the exclusive list.
 
Grossenbacher, who finished his career with 21 goals, 16 assists and 58 points, was a two-time first-team all-SCAC selection. He finished his career by earning third-team All-America honors as a senior.
 
Hooker was one of two goalkeepers who earned a spot on the 30th anniversary squad.
 
A first-team all-SCAC selection during his junior and senior seasons, Hooker earned all-conference honors all four years. He bookended his career as an SCAC major award winner as the Newcomer of the Year in 2014 and Defensive Player of the Year as a senior.
 
Hooker was named a first-team All-American as a senior when he led the SCAC and ranked 28th nationally with a 0.653 goals-against average. Also, he was first in the conference and 33rd in Division III with a .841 saves percentage, and tied for first in the SCAC and tied for 19th nationally with nine clean sheets.
 
Hooker finished his career with 215 saves, allowed just 48 total goals, and his career 0.6328 goals-against average ranks sixth in SCAC history.

Athletes who participated in conference competition between the fall of 2005 through the spring of 2020 and had been named to at least two all-SCAC teams and/or were a selected as a Player of the Year were eligible for consideration.
 
The SCAC was formed in 1991 after a reorganization of its predecessor, the College Athletic Conference (CAC). The CAC dates to 1962 with four charter members: Centre College, Southwestern, Memphis (now Rhodes College), Sewanee-The University of the South, and Washington & Lee (Va.) University. Washington (Mo.) University joined the CAC later that same year.
