Utah State University

High School: He played high school soccer for 3 years. During his senior year at Bingham he was the captain of his soccer team. He won Defender of the year, 3 years in a row. He was mentioned in the All-State 6A boys team as a defender.  His club team was really good, and got invited to play in the Dallas Cup and the International Mayors Cup.

Personal: His parents are Stein and Michele and he has 3 siblings, an older brother and 2 older sisters. His brother is married and just had their first child. His dad used to play soccer and all of his siblings played soccer growing up, which is something that has brought them all together. When his mom was pregnant with him, his dad was a nurse with life flight.  Their helicopter went out and crashed, paralyzing him.  Over the next year his dad learned to walk again.  Soccer is somthing that really connects the two of them.

Besides soccer, he loves to play the piano and it is something he really misses when he's at college.  As of now, he is working towards his generals and is still undecided on what he wants to pursue as his career.  He plans on getting his associates degree this fall and is looking for a 4-year school to continue his soccer career at.  He chose USU Eastern because it was the closest school to home that he received an offer from, and he wanted to stay relatively close to his family.
