December 16, 2019 | Men's Soccer
LOS ANGELES – UCLA junior forward Milan Iloski was named a Second Team All-American by College Soccer News over the weekend.
The All-American designation, the first of his career, is the latest in a string of accolades for Iloski, who had a historically productive campaign in 2019. The Escondido, Calif. native had previously earned First Team All-Far West Region and First Team All-Pac-12 honors.
Iloski finished finished the regular season as NCAA leader in goals per game (1.06) and co-leader in total goals (17).
He was both a consistent and dynamic scorer this past season, recording a point in 11 of the 16 games he entered including 10 contests with a goal. The striker erupted for a school-record five goals against San Diego State on Oct. 6 and also notched a hat trick to lead the Bruins over then-No. 1 and defending national champion Maryland on Sept. 6. He was named the National Player of the Week by TopDrawerSoccer after both of those performances.
His 17 goals on the campaign were the most in a single season by a Bruin since Chandler Hoffman's 18 in 2011, and he is the first Bruin to finish with more than a goal per game since 1980 (Ole Mikkelsen, 1.22).
He is the first Bruin forward to earn All-America honors since Abu Danladi in 2015.
