Overall the recruiting class includes eight incoming freshman that finished in the Clarion Ledger’s final rankings.
Head coach Matt Convertino’s had this to say about his recruiting class.
“This recruiting has got me really excited about ’09! It fills all of the gaps by our departing players and makes us as good, if not better at every position on the field. This recruiting class represents the buzz that not only our soccer program, but our Ridgeland Campus is making in the community.
Our enrollment at Holmes continues to sky-rocket. We are cost-effective, convenient, and from an educational perspective our programs provide a great product. In today’s economy, Mississippi families are recognizing and placing more and more value on what we have to offer.
I appreciate our incoming freshman and transfer students for buying in to my vision of what this team can become and look forward to working with them all in the Fall.”
