BALTIMORE, Md. – UIndy midfielder Kyle Basch was named the 2023 USILA/Blatant Defender of the Year, the organization announced on Friday afternoon.
 
Basch is the first Greyhound in program history to earn a postseason major award from the organization, finishing his final season with 73 ground balls and 29 caused turnovers.
 
Five others joined the Ada, Mich., native on the All-America teams, including Drew Billig (first) and Josh Jackson (second). Wyatt Auyer, Ben Foster, and Evan Soucy were all selected to the Honorable Mention list.
