Marco Amador, a 2022 graduate of Nogales High School, earned a pair of honors for his play this fall as a midfielder with the South Mountain Community College soccer team.
Amador was named to the Second Team All-Arizona Community College Athletic Conference, as well as receiving Second Team All-Region I Division II honors.
During his freshman season, Amador totaled a team-high five goals and 10 points during the campaign, including the game-winning goal in double overtime against Gateway Community College, the SMCC Athletics Department said in an announcement.
Amador opened the season with a pair of goals in a match at Paradise Valley CC on Aug. 19, and also scored at Arizona Western on Sept. 10 and again at Paradise Valley CC on Sept. 20.
Amador was joined on the SMCC team this fall by a pair of 2022 graduates of Rio Rico High School: freshmen Jacob and Jahaziel Estrada.
South Mountain Community College is located in Phoenix and is part of the Maricopa Community College system.
