Pacesetter has another successful year of College Signees

Pacesetter Soccer Club is excited to announce its class of 2012 (U18 teams) with 20 players going on to play at the next level collegiately.

This year we have had a number of girls and boys players that have signed to play in college and the number seems to be growing every year.

"Last year the club had 14 players go on and play in college which was great. This year we have 20 players that will be moving on from our U18 age group.", said Executive Director of Coaching Jimmy Walker. "It is a very proud day for us and definitely the most rewarding part of our job, to see players go on to the next level. It is great to see the number of players increasing and we are excited for the next three or four classes coming through as there seems to be even more players looking to go on to the next level."

On the girls side of the club, there are 12 players going on to play at the next level. Girls Director of Coaching Danny Fisher said, "It has been a great year for our girls program and we are excited to see the number of girls going on to play in college increase. We are committed to player development here at Pacesetter Soccer Club and we are really starting to see a difference with our girls program".

Boys Director of Coaching, Greg McElroy said, "It is becoming a trend to see our boys go on to the next level. In the last two years we have had close to 20 players go on and play in college. It is always very exciting and rewarding to see these players do so."
