AUSTIN, Texas - Following his successful final season in the green and gold, senior forward Paul Einero was named to the 2024 Academic All-America® men's soccer teams as selected by College Sports Communicators.

Einero, a senior studying Business, owns a cumulative grade-point average of 3.67. The forward from Cape Town, South Africa, helped lead the Lions to a 7-8-3 record in 2024, as well as the program's first ever Cascade Collegiate Conference tournament appearance. He finished with 20 goals and three assists across his two seasons as a part of the Multnomah men's soccer team, and was one of the top 100 forwards in the NAIA in 2024, with 1.59 points per game and 0.76 goals per game. Eniero's efforts saw him awarded with 1st Team All-Conference honors following the conclusion of the 2024 CCC season.

Einero was one of three CCC men's soccer players to be named to the 2024 NAIA Academic All-America® 2nd-Team, and is the first in program history for the Multnomah men's soccer team.

"I couldn't be prouder of Paul and all that he has achieved in his final year with us," shared head coach Dalon Parker. "Paul isn't only a high-caliber athlete, but also a high-caliber student, and he never let that slip during his time in our program. He's an excellent role model, and he's set a high standard for this squad going forward."

The NAIA Academic All-America® program is being financially supported by the NAIA national governance structure to assist CSC with handling the awards fulfillment aspects for the 2024-25 NAIA Academic All-America® program.
