Broncbuster Men's Soccer Gets Fifth Recruit

It's getting to the point where one does not need to ask the Garden City Community College soccer coaching staff where they are finding their men's out-of-state recruits. That is because all fingers are getting used to pointing west. Albuquerque , New Mexico is home of the fifth commitment for the Fall 2006 Broncbuster squad, as the soccer office has received a commitment from Javier Delgado. If all holds true, Javier would also be one of at least five players from Albuquerque , New Mexico on the Broncbuster roster next fall.

“When I came here from Williams College , coach Huffman states, it was all about building contacts and getting connections in an area of the country I was not familiar with. I was able to sell the program to one of the coaches of the Nike Rush program, as that contact has essentially manifested itself into a strong Albuquerque recruiting base for us.”

Though Javier does not play for the Rush, he currently plays for the 2nd ranked U-18 club team-according to www.nationalsoccerranking.com- in New Mexico in the South Valley Vipers. Javier is no stranger to the student athletes from Albuquerque already on the Broncbuster roster, as he played against many of them in high school.

The 5'9 135 lb midfielder has helped lead the Vipers to three State Cup Final appearances. He also was a First Team All District selection his Junior Year and a Second Team All District selection his senior year at Albuquerque High School .

Assistant Coach Steve Gorton states, “Javier brings a calm and collective style to the Busters. He is a smooth player and plays-what I would consider- a simple brand of soccer.”
