AMHERST, Mass. - UMass senior midfielders Chris Fiore (Freeport, N.Y.) and Kevin Leveille (Delmar, N.Y.) have been selected to play in the STX / USILA North-South All-Star Game at a date to be determined. It marks the 13th straight year that two UMass players have been selected to participate in the annual game. The game pits the top players from the north against the top players from the south. This year's game will feature 10 All-Americans.
Fiore earned first-team All-America recognition after scoring 46 points (35 g, 11 a) on the season. He finished his UMass career with 115 points (83 g, 32 a). He tallied 92 points (69 g, 23 a) during his final two years in Amherst. He was also named ECAC Offensive Player of the Year and was a finalist for the Tewaaraton Award, given to the nation's top player.
Leveille earned second-team All-America honors after scoring a career-high 51 points (34 g, 17 a). He is one of nine players in UMass history to tally 40 points in a season three times, and was selected as New England Player of the Year. He finished his UMass career with 159 points, good for 11th all-time. His 105 goals rank eighth on the all-time UMass chart. Leveille posted the country's highest single-game point total when he scored 10 points (7 g, 3 a) in a win over Stony Brook. He was also a finalist for the Tewaaraton Award.
In the 44 years of the North-South All-Star game, 67 UMass players have been selected to participate in the contest.
