Mustang trio commits to the Crimson Wave
3/20/10 - Head coach Peter Haze Haring proudly announces the signing of Matt Carlson, Pedro Gomez and Jorge Barba as the  first three committed recruits for 2010-11 men’s soccer season. Coach Haring traveled into the south Chicagoland area and corralled three quality Mustang players from St. Rita High School to be a part of the Crimson Wave tradition at Calumet College of St. Joseph.
Carlson is a fast, smart, aggressive striker who will add depth to the offensive fire-power for the Crimson Wave this fall. Haring comments on Carlson as being “a player who makes smart soccer decisions with his attacking runs. His quick play and awareness within the offensive third of the field will become a major impact on the goal scoring success of the team. Matt will bring a ton of intensity and effort to the Crimson Wave men’s soccer program.”
Gomez is a crafty outside midfielder who has good pace and field vision. “Pedro will have the opportunity to gain quality game time minutes as an outside midfielder because of his uncanny ability to play quality passes into a striking run. What I really like about Gomez is his field vision along with his ability to go 1v1 as an outside player. He could be a key play-maker for the Crimson Wave this fall. “
Barba will be contending for the starting goalkeeper position. Haring comments on Barba, “Jorge will get every opportunity to earn the chance to fill the goalkeeping position this fall. He has a solid presence inside of the goal box and is deceptive with his ability to make quick saves. His work ethic to the goalkeeping position is strong and I know he is motivated to earn the spot as the team’s keeper this upcoming season.”
The Crimson Wave men’s soccer team looses six starting players due to graduation this spring. Of the six graduating players five were starters who played all four seasons and were the foundation of the men’s soccer program which began in the fall of 2006. Carlson, Gomez and Barba will add a new level of skill, commitment and effort to the Crimson Wave soccer program at Calumet College of St. Joseph. Haring concludes, “All three players are quality additions to the CCSJ men’s team and will be considered the next group of young men to lead the team to a new level of success.”
