PHILADELPHIA – The Ivy League announced its 2025 men's soccer postseason honors on Wednesday afternoon, with six members from the University of Pennsylvania men's soccer team earning spots on the All-Ivy teams.
Patrick Cayelli and
Connor Dawson grabbed spots on First Team All-Ivy and are joined by
Romeo Dahlen and
Oliver Pratt on Second Team All-Ivy.
Phillip Falcon III and
Jack-Ryan Jeremiah round out Penn's All-Ivy honors with Honorable Mention.
Midfielder Cayelli, who earned unanimous First Team All-Ivy for the first time in his career, is having a breakout senior season, leading the Ivy League in assists (8), goals (9), shots on goal (25), and points (26). Cayelli's 26 points are a career-high for the senior, headed by a six-point performance and hat trick in Penn's 6-1 win over William & Mary from October and 11 total points in Ivy League play. Cayelli also works hard off the field, earning Academic All-Ivy for his performance in the classroom.
Defender Dawson landed a spot on the first team after leading a Quaker backline that recorded only 11 goals and 67 shots on net. The junior has docked a team-high 1,429 minutes and has started in all 16 matches. On the offensive end of the field, Dawson has tallied a pair of assists so far this year.
Forward Dahlen earned the first All-Ivy honor of his career off a standout sophomore season. Dahlen sits third in the Ivy League in goals with three braces this year in wins over Loyola Maryland, Villanova, and William & Mary. The Greenwich, Conn., native also dished out a goal in the conference victory against Yale.
Defender Pratt earned Second Team All-Ivy for the first time after being a mainstay on the backline in 16 matches and 1,377 minutes this year. The senior led a group that allowed only 11 shots to go past Penn's keepers. The Miami native also helped the Quakers on the offensive end of the field, scoring ten points, including three game-winning goals.
Keeper Falcon, no stranger to All-Ivy nods after earning Second Team All-Ivy last year, bounced back from an injury at the start of the season to allow only six goals in 11 games. The junior sits second in the conference in goals-against average (0.550) and save percentage (0.867). The keeper worked hard to post seven clean sheets, four of which came in Ivy League battles against Harvard, Brown, Dartmouth, and Yale.
Though he missed a portion of the season due to injury, Jeremiah made an impact on the pitch in the 11 games he's played in to earn the second All-Ivy honor of his career. The midfielder has played 718 minutes this year, including a season-high 84 at Seton Hall.
The Red and Blue gear up for the postseason on Thursday, Nov. 13, taking on #2 Cornell in the 2025 Ivy League tournament semifinals. First kick is slated for 3:30 p.m. at Roberts Field on Princeton's campus.
