CARSON, Calif. – When Gyasi Zardes left college to sign with the LA Galaxy, he made a pledge to his family to one day complete his college degree. Just a few short years later, Zardes finished his pact by graduating from Cal State Dominguez Hills.
The Galaxy striker graduated from CSU Dominguez Hills on Friday with a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, completing an educational journey which began back in 2009 at Cal State Bakersfield. The Hawthorne native admitted after the ceremony that “words could not describe” his emotions, but he was immensely proud of his accomplishments and the example that he set for his children.
