BRIGHTON, Mich. – The Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) announced its 2026 All-MIAA Men's Soccer award winners, as voted on by the head coaches from the conference's eight member institutions. Adrian College goalkeeper Eli Sizemore and defender Travis Zeleji were both named Second Team All-MIAA.
Sizemore started 17 matches and played 1,530 minutes in goal for the Bulldogs. The junior finished the season with 116 saves, an .823 save percentage, a 1.47 goals-against average and four shutouts. He was especially strong during MIAA play, recording a 1.00 goals-against average and an .844 save percentage across seven conference matches. Sizemore was also named MIAA Defensive Athlete of the Week earlier in the season.
Zeleji started all 17 matches and led Adrian's outfield players with 1,514 minutes played. The junior was a steady presence in the center of the Bulldogs' back line, helping organize a defense that allowed only seven goals across seven MIAA matches. His strength in the air, physical play and ability to break up scoring opportunities helped the Bulldogs remain competitive throughout a challenging conference schedule. Zeleji also contributed offensively with one goal and one assist.
Sizemore and Zeleji helped Adrian earn the No. 5 seed in the MIAA Tournament after the Bulldogs closed the regular season with a playoff-clinching victory.
