NAPERVILLE, IL – The Millikin men's soccer team earned two spots to both the College Conference of Illinois & Wisconsin First and Second Teams, along with a conference RESPECT award honoree, the league announced in late October.

Seniors Bryce Davis and Olav Kaldahl earned First-Team All-CCIW honors, while sophomores Kyle Grasse and Ryder Ramson were selected to Second Team.
Davis earned his second-consecutive First-Team selection after scoring nine goals, including two in CCIW play, across 14 games. His season was highlighted by a two-goal effort against Carthage on Sept. 26. The senior forward also tallied two game-winning goals for the Big Blue and finished second on the team with 20 points.

Kaldahl is coming off an impressive 2026 campaign in which he finished tied for fifth in all of Division III with 10 assists, including six in conference play. He also finished tied for the conference lead in overall goals with nine. The senior captain from Jevnaker, Norway, led Millikin in points with 28 and minutes played with 1,141.  

Grasse continued to improve as the season progressed, tallying three of his four goals in conference play, including two of them against North Park on Saturday, Oct. 24. The sophomore forward ranked second on the squad with seven assists and was one of two players to appear in every game this season.  

Ramson was a crucial piece of the Big Blue's defense and came in clutch multiple times in CCIW play. His season was highlighted by a goal and an assist against Illinois Wesleyan, helping the Big Blue earn their first win at Neis Field in 11 years. The sophomore defender also scored against Carroll on Saturday, Oct. 3.
