Midfielder Owen Stewart of Prince George has committed to play for the UNBC Timberwolves men’s soccer team for the 2016-17 season.
The Duchess Park student was named MVP for the Condors who captured their second consecutive North Central Zone AA championship.
Stewart, who will take Business Administration at UNBC, is the first member of Steve Simonson’s inaugural recruiting class.
“I knew what he did in Victoria, and what he’s done with his coaching,” Stewart said of Simonson. “It was one of those things where, seeing him come to my hometown and coach university here, it was pretty huge to play under him, and it was something I wanted to do.”
Owen Stewart will suit up alongside his older brother Liam, who joined the Timberwolves last season after spending parts of two seasons with the University of Washington.
