Adding Mr. Soccer’s to the roster is like clockwork for coach Chad Wiseman and the Western Michigan men’s soccer staff. Mr. Soccer — the prestigious award given to the best Michigan high school soccer athlete has been the commonality between Wiseman’s top recruits the past four years.
Freshman Brennan Creek, Sophomore Mike Melaragni, redshirt sophomore Dalton Michael and senior Anthony Bowie were all awarded the title during their high school career. Each looks to help Western Michigan compete for a MAC title in 2019.
“Anthony Bowie was the first Mr. Soccer we got. He helped us break through the recruiting world and were happy to have him and he’s been an explosive player for us for the past 4 years,” Wiseman said.
