The All-West Metro Conference boys soccer team selections have been announced, and West Orange and Southwest Orange once again are well represented.

Three Ocoee players received the All-Metro honor: senior goalkeeper Ismael Herrera, senior defender Kenwood Bossous and senior midfielder Jacob Munoz. Windermere senior defender Matias Montenegro and junior attacker Alfredo Adrian and West Orange senior midfielders Zack Grauer and Curtis Pickard also were named to the team; as was Horizon junior Rafael Tomirotte and Olympia senior Guilherme Valente.

Along with receiving All-Metro honors, Munoz, Herrera, Montenegro and Valente — plus Horizon’s Yassine Mossadek, West Orange’s Kelvin Ramirez and Windermere Prep’s Nickolay Urbina — were selected to participate in the Orange County vs. Seminole County Senior All-Star Game. Pickard and Horizon’s Jayden Thorne were selected as the first two alternates for the game if a player is unable to participate. Kickoff for the game is set for 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 28, at Oviedo High.
