SBCC sophomores-Oscar Medina, Lamont Dupree and Jakharie Murphy have
been named to the first-team All-American Pacific Conference football team.
Medina, the Vaqueros leading receiver with 50 catches for 649 yards and 2
TDs, made the offensive first team while Dupree and Murphy were defensive
choices. Medina filled in at quarterback after John Uribe was hurt in the
sixth game, completing 19 of 34 passes for 139 yards and a touchdown. He
also ran for a touchdown.
Dupree, a 6-footer from Los Angeles, was one of four unanimous picks on the
first-team defense. The safety was fourth in the APC with an average of 8.7
tackles per game. He led SBCC in tackles (87) and solo tackles (40). Murphy
was a return specialist, averaging 21.1 yards on kickoff returns.
Running back Tristan Carter made the second-team offensive unit, along with
freshman tackle Chris Anderson (6-4, 275). Carter, a sophomore from Tucker,
Ga., ran for 463 yards and eight touchdowns. He had 226 yards and five TDs
in the last two games.
The Vaqueros (3-7, 2-5) finished sixth in the APC.
Matt Racowski, a 6-2 sophomore from San Pedro, made the second-team defense
as an outside linebacker. He actually played safety and was the leading
tackler in the conference (10.7 avg.) before missing the last three games
with an injury.
Linebacker Cameron Hines, a 6-0 sophomore from Norcross, Ga., and sophomore
defensive tackle Osvaldo Donato Castorena also made the second-team
defense.
Hines averaged 7.7 tackles, the fifth-highest total in the APC.
