Yellowjackets Sign Washington Soccer Player (June 1, 2004)

BILLINGS, MT – Montana State-Billings head men’s soccer coach Doug Seigle announced today that he has signed another standout from Juanita High School in Kirkland, Wash.  Midfielder Greg McKeever, a 6-foot-1 midfielder, has signed a national letter of intent to play for the Yellowjackets next season.  Seigle earlier signed McKeever’s teammate, Colin Adams.

Juanita High School recently placed second in the Washington State 4A Tournament.  McKeever and Adams scored the team’s two goals in its 2-1 semifinal victory. 

McKeever scored six goals with nine assists in his senior season.  Juanita’s season was completed last weekend at the state tournament, and season honors will be released next week.  As a junior, McKeever was named Juanita High School’s Most Valuable Player and earned All-King County first team honors.  He also garnered first team All-King County honors as a sophomore.

“Greg is a very talented left footed player who can play multiple positions and we expect for him to fight for playing time at a midfield or defensive spot,” said Seigle.  “He has good size and a great left foot that will help us attack up the left side from either outside position.  He will definitely be someone who can step in and make an immediate contribution as a true freshman.”
