Caleb Urban Selected to Play in Tazón de Estrellas

San Antonio - Trinity University Tigers senior wide receiver Caleb Urban of Victoria, Texas (Memorial), has been selected to play Dec. 18 in the Tazón de Estrellas (Bowl of the Stars) in Toluca, Mexico.
 
The 6-foot-1, 205-pound Urban will join a group of NCAA Division III All-Stars (Team Stars & Stripes) and the CONADEIP All-Stars from Mexico. Urban is the eighth Trinity player to compete in the U.S. vs. Mexico all-star game. Wide receiver Riley Curry represented the Tigers in the 2009 tilt, and was named a team captain.
 
The game will be played at Tec Monterrey Stadium. CONADEIP is a newly formed Mexican conference of private schools. The game, formerly known as the Aztec Bowl, is organized by Global Football. Last year, Team Stars and Stripes suffered a 24-12 loss to the Tec Monterrey All-Stars.
 
Urban leads the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference in kickoff returns (14 returns, 411 yards, 29.4 average). He is fourth in all-purpose yards (292 yards receiving, with three touchdowns; 142 rushing yards; 411 kickoff return yards; and 42 interception return yards; for 887 total; an average of 147.8 yards per game).
 
Last season, Urban returned 24 kickoffs for a school single-season record of 630 yards and one touchdown. He holds the Tiger record for career kickoff return yards (1,726) and single-season yards. The records were previously held by his brother, Jerheme Urban, a receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs.
 
The Tigers (3-3, 1-2 SCAC) will host defending conference co-champion DePauw (6-0, 4-0 SCAC) at 1:30 p.m. Saturday at the Trinity Football Stadium. The game will be played during the University's Alumni Weekend.
