Burlington, Ont. – Ontario University Athletics (OUA) is pleased to announce the 2018 men's soccer major award winners and all-stars, a group that sees superb representation from the conference's top-ranked squads.  

The Queen's Gaels, have a trio of second-teamers on the roster. Michael Chang's (Mississauga, Ont.) role with the Gaels was that of playmaking midfielder, and it was one in which he took on with great success. He led the team with five goals and six points while starting 14 of the team's matches. He also led the team with 20 shots on goal and buried three game-winners.

Second-year defender Zachary Toupin (Winnipeg, Man.) was the Gaels' leader on the back end. His 6'4" frame was a consistent force in the Queen's end, leading the team to six clean sheets. He also chipped in offensively with two goals and an assist, using his height to leap high over defenders from corner opportunities. The final Tricolour rep is Junior Kwame Addai (Calgary, Alta.), who netted three goals during his all-star worthy campaign.
