New Recruits

From top to bottom are my three newest recruits. Jordan Grace from Hopkinsville, Kentucky, Eric Wright from Harrisburg, Illinois and Griffin Groves from Olney, Illinois are the latest young men to sign a letter of intent to play soccer for RLC this fall.

Jordan played forward for the University Heights Academy in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. He had several accomplishments this past fall including being named to the all district team and scoring 40 goals in his senior season! He set a school record of 100 goals in his four years at UHA. He's a talented player with a no quit attitude. He'll make a very nice addition to our squad this fall.

Eric played Keeper this past year for Coach Gregg, but he played the field his freshman through junior years. Eric did a great job at Keeper this past season as he stopped 7 out of 8 penalty kicks. He was named to the All South team this past year and he is very eager to get started at RLC. Although Eric did a great job at Keeper I'm probably going to use him on the field as a midfielder.

Griffin set the Olney High School record for career goals and assists this year. He was all sectional, all-state Chicago Fire all academic team, Decatur Herald first team, and all-south for two years. He's a very talented player that can fill any position on the field.

I'm very excited about these three young men. They are going to be an excellent addition to our 2009-2010 squad.
