PITTSBURGH, PA — Bryant & Stratton College Rochester is proud to announce that men's soccer standouts Yassine Kone and Michael Ingallinera have been selected to the USCAA Soccer National Championships All-Tournament Team following their exceptional performances in Pittsburgh this past week.

Bryant & Stratton Rochester opened the tournament with a commanding 6–1 victory over #2 seed Five Towns College, setting the tone for an aggressive and efficient tournament showing. Kone delivered one of the most dominant individual performances of the championship's opening day, scoring three goals on three shots for a perfect shooting rate. Ingallinera added to the offensive explosion with one goal on one shot and one assist, providing both finishing quality and creative support in the attack.

In their second match, the Bobcats narrowly missed a spot in the championship game, falling 2–1 to the University of Maine at Fort Kent in a highly competitive contest. Kone scored Rochester's lone goal and added three shots, while Ingallinera contributed another shot as the Bobcats continued to apply pressure throughout the match.

Their consistent production, efficiency, and leadership across both matches earned them recognition as two of the tournament's top performers.

About Yassine Kone

Kone, a 6'0" freshman Attacking Center Midfielder from the Ivory Coast, made an immediate impact in his debut collegiate season. Entering the national tournament, he compiled 6 goals, 4 assists, 16 points, and 1 game-winning goal, establishing himself as a dynamic and reliable playmaker in the center of the pitch. A graduate of I.E.S.A., Kone's creativity, vision, and ability to control the tempo have quickly made him one of the most promising young midfielders in the USCAA.

About Michael Ingallinera

Ingallinera, a 6'4", 180-pound freshman Forward from Brea, California, has emerged as one of the Bobcats' most dangerous attacking threats. Prior to the national tournament, he totaled 8 goals, 2 assists, 18 points, and 3 game-winning goals, showcasing his ability to finish in big moments and affect games with his size, skill, and versatility. A product of Brea Olinda High School, Ingallinera has brought a strong physical presence and a consistent scoring touch to the front line for Bryant & Stratton.

"We are incredibly proud of Yassine and Michael for earning this national honor," said Athletic Director and Men's Soccer Coach Darren Wynne. "Both played at an elite level on the national stage. Yassine's midfield brilliance and Michael's scoring ability have been vital to our success. Their growth and performance this season make this recognition well-deserved."

Kone and Ingallinera now join an elite group of student-athletes recognized by the USCAA for their standout tournament contributions, representing one of Bryant & Stratton Buffalo's strongest national showings in recent years.
