Georgia Perimeter, Herkimer each have three players represented

Georgia Perimeter College and Herkimer County Community College, NJCAA national champions in Division I and Division III respectively, each had three players selected to the 2005 NSCAA/adidas Men’s Junior College All-America Team.

Georgia Perimeter made its second consecutive championship game appearance and won its first NJCAA title with a 3-1 win over perennial power Yavapai College, which also had three players selected to the team. Perimeter’s Luis Campo (Weston, Fla.) was a repeat selection and was joined by teammates Ricardo Cardoso (Tamarac, Fla.), the championship Most Valuable Player, and Jamarr Miller (Penfield, N.Y.).

Herkimer took the Division III crown with a 2-0 win over Richland College. Tournament MVP Miguel Martinez (White Plains, N.Y.) was joined on the squad by teammates Dwight Barnett (Jamaica, N.Y.) and Chris Charles (Brooklyn, N.Y.).

Three players earned the honor for the second consecutive year: Campo, Barnett and Jarius Holmes (Shiloh, Ill.) of Southwestern Illinois College.

The 50 honorees will be invited to the NSCAA All-America Luncheon, which will be held on Saturday, Jan. 21, as part of the 2006 NSCAA Convention in Philadelphia, Pa.
