San Antonio - Trinity seniors Yuri Ribeiro and Darren McAfee have been invited to participate in the training camp of the North American Soccer League's San Antonio Scorpions.

The camp began Monday, and will include from six to eight exhibition matches. FC Dallas of Major League Soccer will take on the Scorpions on March 1 at Toyota Field. The first NASL regular-season home-opener is scheduled for April 12 against Minnesota.

Ribeiro, a forward, was elected to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America/Continental Tire All-America Team for the third time. It also marked the second consecutive year Ribeiro  earned D3soccer.com All-America recognition.

During the 2013 campaign, Ribeiro led the Tigers in total points (38), while scoring 10 goals (two game-winners), and chalking up a team-best 18 assists (third in the nation). Ribeiro was also selected as the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Year, as well as picking up a slot on the All-West Region Team.

McAfee, a midfielder, was named to the NSCAA Men's Scholar  All-America Second Team, the All-Region First Team, and the All-SCAC First Team. He scored five goals and dished out two assists in the course of the Tigers season. McAfee also added a goal and an assist during Trinity's NCAA Division III postseason run.

Trinity is guided by Head Coach Paul McGinlay, who completed his 23rd season at the Tigers helm. Last fall, the Tigers (21-3-1) advanced to the NCAA quarterfinals for the eighth time. Trinity captured a 16th SCAC Championship, and competed in the NCAA Tournament for the 12th straight occasion. At season's end, the Tigers were ranked fourth by D3soccer.com, and sixth by the NSCAA.
