I got word recently that former Missouri State Bear Jacob “Jake” Harris (2005) is having a successful training camp with the Carolina Railhawks of the USL First Division. The photo is by Jarrett Campbell, who has a set from March 15th that includes this shot of Jake.
The Railhawks are a new team and played their first game ever last night, an exhibition match against the Wake Forest men’s team. If Jake is ultimately signed by the Railhawks, who are playing him at outside defense, the closest he’ll come to Springfield will be Thursday September 6th when Carolina visits the Minnesota Thunder.
I haven’t been able to find any info, and possible stats, on tonights game outside of the announcement on the TriSoccerFan site, a soccer blog I’ve pointed too several times in the past. If anyone has more information, please share!
Update - Triangle Soccer Fanatic has more information on the competition for roster spots as well as an update on the game, a 3-1 loss to Wake Forest, an NCAA Final Four participant this year. Over 800 showed up for a friendly!
