                             MEN’S SOCCER SIGN ONE MORE

HOUGHTON, N.Y. Rhett Kenny (High Point/ N.C. / Montreat College) has signed a national letter of intent to play soccer at Houghton College, Highlander coach Matt Webb announced today.

Kenny comes to Houghton after completing his freshman year at Montreat College in North Carolina.

“With his season of experience at Montreat, I expect that Rhett will immediately be able to contribute for us,” says Coach Webb. “He is a technically gifted player and understands the game well. He will most likely find himself in the central midfield for us. His dedication and strong work ethic will make those around him better as well.”

Kenny is a graduate from former Coach Scott Reitnour (Houghton graduate of 1996) at Wesleyan Academy in Highpoint, NC.

 


Houghton College has deep and solid roots in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, where our teams use their commitment to excellence, both on the field-of-play and in the classroom, as a platform for their strong and unique emphasis on Sports Ministry. Their goal is to make a difference for the Kingdom on campus, in Allegany County, in the Northeast and around the world.  Houghton is one of only 13 institutions who have been hand-selected by the NAIA to serve as "Champions of Character" Program Centers, opening the door for Houghton to be a leader, both in the Northeast and nationally, in character education. Through hands-on, innovative community outreach initiatives, Houghton coaches and student-athletes are working together to change the culture of sport and to change our culture through sport.
