Crowned the Big West Offensive Player of the Year for the second consecutive time and just the fifth player in Big West history to be selected First Team All-America by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA), junior forward Nick DePuy had one of the most prolific seasons in the nation in 2015. In addition to leading the conference in goals (15), total points (31) and shots (80), DePuy was best in the clutch as he led both the nation and conference with eight game-winning goals and is currently third all-time in Big West history with 14 career game-winners. The Gauchos’ sharpshooter also tied for third in the nation in scoring with 15 goals. Becoming the first player in Big West history to earn three straight Big West Offensive Player of the Week awards this season, DePuy’s impact on the field is inevitable as Santa Barbara is 16-0-4 all-time when the forward scores a goal.

The UCSB men’s water polo team enjoyed good success this season, which was in large part due to its star senior goalkeeper Chris Whitelegge. The California native relished his time as the starting goalkeeper for Santa Barbara. That all came to fruition on Senior Day when the Gauchos took on UC Irvine. In that match, Whitelegge had 11 saves to help lead his team to a narrow 6-5 victory in his final home match. Those 11 saves made Whitelegge UCSB’s all-time saves leader with a total of 828. The senior ended his collegiate career with 895 total saves, placing him second in the MPSF career saves while also adding to his school record. Whitelegge had an amazing career while at UCSB, and his record-breaking performance specifically encompassed that. Christina DeMarzo / Daily Nexus
