Former national youth team member and Fairleigh Dickinson men's player Nicholas Walker was named first team All-Northeast Conference in the USA, the league announced a couple weeks ago.
Walker also was named the NEC defensive player of the year.
Walker, who was one of 34 men's identified as a potential candidate for the 2013 Missouri Athletic Club's Hermann Trophy in the preseason, started all 14 games he played in, despite missing four games over a three-week stretch with an injury.
The senior co-captain played very well in anchoring the backline, according to the Big Apple website. Walker, a two-time first team All-NEC selection after making the team last year, scored one goal this season.
