KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Bates men's soccer first-year forward Luke Cunniffe has earned third team All-Region honors, as announced Tuesday by the United Soccer Coaches. 

Cunniffe (Windham, Maine) is the only rookie out of Region I to earn All-Region recognition. This comes on the heels of Cunniffe picking up second team All-NESCAC accolades on Nov. 12. 

The economics major saw action in all 16 matches this season, starting 11. He led the team with 12 points, including a team-high five goals, plus a pair of assists. Cunniffe scored eventual game-winning goals against Saint Joseph's and Husson. He also found the back of the net in NESCAC action in a 2-0 win over Hamilton. 

The Bobcats finished the 2025 season with an overall record of 7-6-3, their most wins since 2019.
