Cardinal Lands Seven on All-MPSF Teams

Pittman, Jensen, Temkin, Painter, Parrish, Schneider and Dash McFarland all earn conference honors

STANFORD, Calif. - Seven members of the Cardinal picked up All-MPSF West honors today, including three First Team selections in Riley Pittman, Soren Jensen and West Temkin.

The list includes plenty of familiar faces. Pittman and Jackson Painter, who earned Second Team distinction, each earned the honor for the third time. Ethan Parrish earned a spot on the Honorable Mention squad, joining Jensen as two-time selections.

The Cardinal's two 2024 transfers both earned the conference honors in their first season on The Farm - Temkin on the First Team and Dash McFarland on the Second Team. Fellow newcomer Will Schneider earned an Honorable Mention spot as well, one of just three freshmen in the conference to crack any of the three teams.

The seven honorees extend a streak of nine-straight seasons with Stanford seeing at least four All-MPSF West selections.

The talented group will put the honors to the test this weekend, kicking off the MPSF Champonships on Friday.
