BOILING SPRINGS --- Junior Ali Al-Gashamy (Kristiansand, Norway) has been named to the College Sports Madness Big South All-Conference Second Team for the second straight season after leading Gardner-Webb in nearly all offensive categories this fall.
Al-Gashamy put together perhaps his best season in a Gardner-Webb jersey this fall, leading the team in goals (seven), assists (six) and points (20) while finishing the regular season tied for fourth in the Big South in points.
A native of Kristiansand, Norway, Al-Gashamy enjoyed a tremendous three-week run of form earlier this season, scoring five goals and adding three assists in a six-match stretch that included a season-high four points with a goal and two assists in the 5-1 win over Brevard.
The junior forward is currently averaging more than one point per match in his career at Gardner-Webb, ending the regular season with 11 goals, 13 assists and 35 points in 34 career appearances in a Runnin' Bulldog shirt.
