Latest Recruiting News

I have verbal commitments from numbers 15 and 16 on our roster. That leaves two spots (numbers 17 and 18) on the scholarship roster for Oscar and Antony.

We have mailed the student visas to Oscar and Antony, they should have received them by now. Hopefully they will be able to get an appointment with the U.S. Embassy soon and then we'll have to wait and see if they can get permission to come over.

The two latest recruits are Marcus Fernandes and Neil Houlihan. Marcus is a Keeper from Nixa, Missouri, and Neil is a Forward from Springfield, Illinois. I'll be signing both of them sometime next week.

After all of our high school scholarship guys graduate, we'll have a team meeting to introduce everyone, have a little cookout, and a kick around, just to get to know each other. Also once we get our high school guys graduated we'll be able to get everyone together throughout the summer for some scrimmages.

I'll pass the word along just as soon as I hear from the guys from Kenya.
