Ewing, NJ¦ With the release of the 2007 National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) All-Metro Region Team, The College of New Jersey finds three players amongst the region's players honored with a spot on the all-star team.

He added two game-winning goals and is currently ranked fourth in the NJAC with his 1.47 points per game, while his 10 goals was seventh best in the league. A 19-game starter for the Lions, Luber now has 11 career goals with 10 assists for 32 points in 35 games played thus far. He was also named the NJAC Offensive Player of the Week after adding 5 points on the week and by year's end was a 2007 NJAC All-Star First Team honoree.
