SAN BRUNO, Calif. - The Saint Mary's men's soccer team had three All-WCC selections as announced by the conference office on Tuesday. Midfielder Cameron Kobey, defender Talan Rochelle and forward Luke Schaefer represented Saint Mary's as Honorable Mention selections for their first career WCC all-conference selections.
Cameron Kobey | So. | MF | Honorable Mention
Cameron Kobey was a player to watch for the Gaels since the start of the season and he delivered, scoring a career high five goals over his 17 starts in 2026. The Arizona native was a dynamic attacking midfielder all season for the Gaels and was at the center of their attack all year long. Kobey's five goals and three assists tied him for the team lead in points with 13 and he also ranked second on the team with 32 shot attempts. Kobey's season highs included a goal and an assist in two matches this season including a wild 3-3 draw with No. 12 Creighton and a conference shootout against Seattle U in October.
Talan Rochelle | Jr. | D | Honorable Mention
Talan Rochelle was an impact transfer for the Gaels in 2026, acting as a swiss army knife in the team's backline. Rochelle was a box-to-box outside back and winger at times for the Gaels, finishing the season as the only player to start in all 18 games. The Gonzaga transfer tied the team lead with a career high three assists as Saint Mary's was 2-0-1 when he recorded an assist with wins over Sacramento State and Omaha. He finished second on this year's squad with 1,538 minutes played for his first career All-WCC selection.
Luke Schaefer | Gr. | F | Honorable Mention
Rounding out the Honorable Mention selections for the Gaels was graduate transfer Luke Schaefer. Schaefer brought an athletic and dynamic presence to the forward position for the Gaels and had a hot finish to the 2026 season, leading the team with six goals over his 17 games played. The Arizona native scored his second collegiate brace in a narrow 3-2 defeat to Denver to surpass Kobey for the team lead in goals. He recorded his first points as a Gael with a goal and an assist early in the season against San Jose State and went on to lead the Gaels attack with 46 shot attempts on the season. Schaefer and Kobey finished the 2026 campaign as the program's first two five-plus goal scorers since 2019 and Schaefer's Honorable Mention selection went down as the second of his collegiate career after earning All-Big West Honorable Mention in 2023 at Cal Poly.
