Wrexham to WolfPack, men's soccer adds talented Rainbird

COACH JOHN ANTULOV

"He's a big, strong, physical player on the outside that is good in the attack and defensively. He is a well-rounded player that will give us some real ability going forward in attack."

"It's really going to bring a nice, exciting piece to our group. It's exciting to have him here and his experience with the levels that he has played at. James will bring another dynamic for us that I think is going to push our young group forward."

JAMES RAINBIRD

"Football has been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I've been fortunate to play for clubs like Everton, Crewe Alexandra, and most recently Wrexham, where I spent three years. After suffering a tough injury, I've been hungrier than ever to get back on the pitch and continue pushing myself at a high level."

"Coming from the UK, I first learned about university soccer in North America through a group called Rebirth while I was out in Canada during pre-season with Wrexham. Hearing about the level, the opportunities, and the platform it provides really caught my attention."

"When I spoke with John, everything just clicked the vision he had for the program matched my own ambitions as a player. The team's goals, the environment, and the culture all felt like the perfect fit. That's when I knew TRU and the WolfPack were where I wanted to be.
