Testimonial

Chris is a centre back with good physical traits who can mix it with strikers physically and also moves well to deal with balls over the top and players running at him. He is comfortable on the ball and keeps the game simple knowing his first job is to defend. He is an aerial threat in both boxes and often makes first contact with set pieces. He’s a player with more experience than the typical true freshman which is a big plus. Stephen Murray (SMUSA Scholarships)
