Abdul-Malak Named a United Soccer Coaches Player to Watch

CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Boston College men's soccer student-athlete Ziad Abdul-Malak has been named to the United Soccer Coaches Midfielders to Watch list.

Abdul-Malak receives the recognition after being named to the United Soccer Coaches All-Northeast Region Second Team in 2024 while playing for Le Moyne.

The redshirt senior arrives on the Heights after spending the last four years playing for Le Moyne. In 2024, Abdul-Malak started all 16 games for the Dolphins, tallying five goals and one assist. He led the team in goals, was second in points, and third in minutes played. An All-NEC First Team selection, the New York native was named to the NEC All-Tournament Team after leading Le Moyne to the semifinals of the conference tournament.

This marks the second-straight season in which an Eagle appeared on the United Soccer Coaches Players to Watch list after Ask Ekeland was named to the 2024 list.

Boston College opens the season on Thursday, Aug. 21 on the Newton Campus. Kickoff is slated for 5:30 p.m. and the game will be streamed live on ACC Network Extra.
