Welcome to another highly sought after soccer recruit. Welcome, Sammy. And I would also like to say that Jonathan Lewis is one very classy, super nice young man. Jonathan replied back to the newest recruit. Joining a legendary program. Congrats. Sammy, looking forward to seeing you on Cub Cadet field in fall 2018. it appears that this young man is with Real Salt Lake Academy now and has spent time with the Canadian national team.

excellent ratings for the 2 former zips http://www.espnfc.us/team/united-states/660/blog/post/3140704/darlington-nagbe-the-conduit-for-the-us-christian-pulisic-the-closer-vs-tandt

http://www.espnfc.com/team/united-states/660/blog/post/3137576/deandre-yedlin-makes-an-impression-as-usa-struggle-to-a-draw-vs-venezuela america's most consistent player not on gold cup roster??

as zip_me87 stated, SIU-E is definitely a program on the upswing.... they hired a Ken Lolla assistant in January 2015 - Mario Sanchez..... Their last 2 years have been excellent..... I expect that 2017....will be another very good year for them Sanchez has agreed to restart their matchups with St. Louis University. They used to draw some great crowds at Busch stadium for the battle of St. Louis. SIU-E stadium seats 4,000. Soccer is very important to SIU-E.

SIU-E last year....knocked off Michigan State (which akron did not last year)...they tied in regulation and won on PK's they went to top 16 seed Butler....and won on PK's.... then in the round of 16, they lost 2-1 to a very good Wake Forest team. St. Louis ....has always been a hot bed for excellent junior soccer....Edwardsville gets a lot of kids from the St. Louis area. They are not an unknown school for soccer. SIU-Edwardsville will raise the bar for other teams in the MAC. Having the certainty of a 6th team in the MAC and having another consistent top 30 RPI team in the league to compete with Akron will help coach Embick in recruiting.

SIU-E won 2 matches last year in the NCAA's and made it to the round of 16. I believe that they defeated Michigan State on PK's. They will help Zips soccer in the RPI. Tremendous upgrade over Buffalo. Edwardsville is 525 miles away from Akron. I do hope that the mens soccer team will be able to fly to St. Louis when they play at SIU-E.

Congratulations to Sam
