Despite Lipscomb University being a private school with an enrollment of fewer than 5,000, the school’s men’s soccer program has established itself as nationally prominent over the past decade.

During his time in Nashville, the fleet-footed forward scored nearly 30 goals and was named an All-American. And as of this writing, he’s already scored twice as a rookie for Toronto FC. L
