Yellowjacket Soccer Team Inks Two More Recruits (May 5, 2004)

BILLINGS, MT – Montana State-Billings men’s soccer coach Doug Seigle announced today that Alex Newton of Juneau, Ala., and Nathan Will of Colorado Springs, Colo., have signed national letters of intent to play for the Yellowjackets next season. 

Will was a three-year letter winner at James Irwin Charter High School in Colorado Springs.  The 6-foot-3 forward scored 18 goals and five assists in 16 games as a junior.  He missed his senior season with an injury.  Will helped his team to the state playoffs as a junior.  He also lettered two years in basketball and one year in baseball.

“Nathan is a tall, thin guy who is a good prospect for us,” said Seigle.  “This is only his fourth year of playing soccer.  He has a huge upside and can play multiple positions.”

Newton played at Juneau-Douglas High School, where his senior season is still ongoing.  He was a two-year letter winner and helped his team to the 2003 Alaska state championship.  His team was ranked in the top 20 in the nation among spring soccer teams.

“Alex is a young, scrappy player,” said Seigle.  “I look for him to compete right away for playing time.”
