Smoak, Williams Sign Division I Soccer Scholarships

Sophomores and All-Americans Micah Smoak and Wilfred Williams on Wednesday signed Letters of Intent to continue their soccer careers.

Smoak, a defender from Melbourne, Florida and Melbourne High, signed with the University of North Florida in Jacksonville.

Williams, a defender from Memphis, Tennessee and the University of Memphis, signed with Oakland University in Michigan.

They became the sixth and seventh Eastern Florida men's players in the program's three-year history to sign with NCAA Division I level institutions.

They join previous Division I signees Arturo Roosen (Stetson University), Justin Gavin (Florida Gulf Coast University), Ivan Magalhaes (University of Maryland), Kyle Carr (Liberty University) and Keenan King (Oakland) as Division I signees.

Magalhaes in January became the first Titan to be selected in the Major League Soccer draft, being picked by the Houston Dynamo.

'Needless to say we are all thrilled for Micah and Wilfred," said Eastern Florida head coach Oliver Twelvetrees.

"They are tremendous players who also are fine young men who represented themselves and the program on the pitch and most importantly in the classroom.

"We wish them continued success in soccer and in life."

Smoak was named to both the NJCAA and National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) first-team All-America squads while Williams was a first-team NJCAA selection and an NSCAA second-team honoree. 

Eastern Florida reached the NJCAA Division I national semifinals this past season, finishing with a 15-2-2 record.
