The new year always brings new opportunities, and for Tate Schmitt it brought the prospect of playing at the professional level of his sport.
Last week, Schmitt made the first step beyond leading U of L men’s soccer and signed a homegrown contract with Real Salt Lake in the MLS. The forward will don the Claret-and-Cobalt jersey and play this upcoming 2019 season.
“I’m very excited to have signed my first professional contract with Real Salt Lake and it’s a very proud moment for myself and my family,” Schmitt said.
