From highlight-reel goals to crunching tackles, there were numerous top-class performances from Sounders Academy alums on campus last week. In fact, multiple matches – notably Santa Clara versus Gonzaga – featured former Rave Green youth team standouts on both sides of the ball.
Henry Wingo and Handwalla Bwana earned starts for the University of Washington in conference play against Jalen Markey and Oregon State on Oct. 14. A dynamic box-to-box player, Wingo bossed the midfield with both his attacking and defensive abilities. Whether it was an incisive pass or a surging run from deep, the junior midfielder consistently broke the Beavers’ defensive lines.
