KANSAS CITY, Mo. – United Soccer Coaches has announced the association's 2025 Men's and Women's Scholar All-America Teams, including the Scholar Players of the Year, for all levels of college soccer.

Eskil Instebø, a team captain, posted a 3.76 grade point average in business to earn second team scholar all-american honors, a fifth straight year for a Jones College men's player to earn the accolade. 

Instebø was one of two selections from the MACCC. The other was from Mississippi Gulf Coast.

The Bergen, Norway, product helped Jones to 18 shutouts over his two seasons, including 10 his sophomore year in which the Bobcats took eventual national champion and No. 1 Phoenix College to penalty kicks.

Student-athletes on this year's Scholar All-America Teams will be formally acknowledged for their accomplishments on the field and in the classroom at the United Soccer Coaches All-America Ceremony on Saturday, Jan. 17, 2026, in Philadelphia, Pa., in conjunction with the United Soccer Coaches Convention.
