Three Virginia soccer players have been named to Soccer America all-freshmen teams. Scott Vermillion and Matt Chulis were chosen for the men's team, and Karem Esteva was selected for the women's team.
The UVa threesome comprised the only defenders on either all-freshman team, which honors the top 11 men and women in the current freshman class.
