Purdue University Calumet head men’s soccer coach Ryan Hayes added to his 2015-16 recruiting class with the signing of Northwestern Ohio transfer Sergio Reyes.
Reyes spent the last two years at University of Northwestern Ohio, where he was a two-time member of the all-academic team. In his time at UNOH, he played in 14 games with nine starts, while being a part of the 2014 Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference regular-season championship team.
"Sergio brings a high level of quality to the Purdue Calumet men’s soccer team," Peregrines Head Coach Ryan Hayes said. "His experience of being a member of a team that reached the NAIA Men’s Soccer National Championship Semifinal will be valuable as we look to pursue our goals this year."
The 6-foot center back was a team captain since his freshman year for Gimnasio Minuto de Dios High School in Tabio, Columbia, while excelling in the classroom, ranking in the Top 5 of his class his senior year.
Reyes was a four-year captain of his club teams, Fortaleza and River Plate, while helping each earn multiple tournament championships in Columbia, including a victory in the National Bogota League (3rd division) final.
Sergio is the son of Edilberto Reyes and Lina Durado and plans to major in mechanical engineering at Purdue Calumet.
