Cal Poly Pomona Athletics Hall of Fame
Sergi Monsó’s induction into the Cal Poly Pomona Athletics Hall of Fame marks a historic moment for the program, as he becomes the first men’s soccer player ever enshrined in the Hall. His selection reflects not only extraordinary individual achievement, but also his lasting impact on the most successful era of CPP men’s soccer.
A member of the program from 2015 to 2017, Monsó established himself as the most accomplished player in men’s soccer history at Cal Poly Pomona. He is the program’s all-time leader in career goals (38), points (96), shots (205), game-winning goals (17), and penalty kick goals (7), while also ranking second in career assists (20). During his senior season in 2017, Monsó delivered the most dominant single-season performance the program has ever seen, setting school records for goals (21), points (53), shots (89), game-winning goals (8), games played (24), and games started (24).
Monsó’s excellence earned widespread recognition at every level. He was a two-time All-American (2016, 2017), a two-time All-West Region selection, and a two-time All-CCAA First Team honoree, after earning All-CCAA Honorable Mention as a sophomore in 2015. As a senior in 2017, he was named CCAA Offensive Player of the Year, cementing his status as the premier attacking player in the conference. Monsó was just as committed to his studies as he was to dominating on the pitch, earning CCAA Scholar-Athlete of the Year, United Soccer Coaches Scholar All-American, and CCAA All-Academic honors, making him one of the most accomplished students to compete at a high level.
Beyond individual accolades, Monsó played a central role in team success during a golden stretch for the program. He helped lead Cal Poly Pomona to NCAA Division II Final Four appearances in 2015 and 2017, anchoring offenses that were the most prolific in school history. His contributions helped define the Broncos as a national contender throughout the decade, including a national runner-up finish in 2015.
Reflecting on his induction, Monsó said, “It is a true honor to be inducted into the CPP Hall of Fame, a school that gave me one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I would like to thank everyone who made this possible, from Coach Yossi and Coach Adam to all of my teammates during those three years. I remember my time at CPP as one of the most enriching periods of my life, both in terms of soccer and personal growth. Thank you, CPP, for giving me the opportunity to succeed both on the field and in the classroom. I will always carry with me the lessons you taught me.”
After graduating, Monsó continued his soccer career at the semi-professional level in his hometown of Barcelona while also becoming involved in his family’s pharmaceutical marketing business. Over the past five years, he has taken on full management of the company, concentrating on its financial growth and long-term stability. In addition to his professional pursuits, Monsó and his wife welcomed their daughter, Gia, a milestone that has brought new perspective and purpose to his life. Today, he continues to balance his passion for playing soccer, leadership of the family business, and a deep commitment to growing together as a family.
