MISSION, Kan. - San Diego State senior Tally Hall (Gig Harbor, Wash.) has been named a second-team All-American by NSCAA/adidas. Days earlier, Hall was named to the NSCAA/adidas all-Far West Region first team.
Hall, who was a semifinalist for the 2006 M.A.C. Hermann Trophy, went 9-5-4 with a 1.04 goals against average and 80.0 shots-on-goal save percentage this season. In Pac-10 play, Hall was even better, going 5-1-3 and leading the conference in shutouts (four), goals against average (0.72) and shots-on-goal save percentage (0.72).
Hall, a first-team all-Pac-10 honoree for the second straight season, was an All-America selection by three publications last year, including a third-team honoree by NSCAA/adidas.
Hall was named Co-Most Valuable Player of The Soccer Post/Aztec Classic and later garnered all-tournament accolades at the USD/San Diego State Soccer Classic. On Sept. 26, he was named the Pac-10 Player of the Week for the first time in his career and on Oct. 2 he was selected to the College Soccer News National Team of the Week.
The Aztecs finished their season at 9-6-4 and advanced to their second straight NCAA tournament.
