Presbyterian College men’s soccer unveils 11-player recruiting class

Clinton, S.C. – Presbyterian College men’s soccer coach Jonathan Potter announced the addition of 11 new players for the 2020 season. These 11 standout student-athletes signed earlier this semester prior to the current NCAA dead period.

“We are excited to begin to announce our 2020 recruiting class,” said Potter. “Today we celebrate eleven young men and their families joining the Presbyterian College Soccer family.

We got to know each student-athlete over the past year and feel they will impact the program on and off the field. They understand the hard work and sacrifice it takes to compete at the highest level and are united in that idea with our returning group.

I want to sincerely thank assistant coach Luke Oesterle for his help in the formation of our 2020 recruiting class. We plan on more announcements in the summer as we continue to finish our 2020 class.”
