MSOC: National champion Behery joins TWolves from VIU
The University of Northern British Columbia Men’s soccer team has added a National Champion, officially announcing the transfer of Hussein Behery from the Vancouver Island University Mariners for the 2019-2020 Canada West season.
“Some people may think it’s crazy that I want to pursue soccer after, but that is what I want. It is what I have been dreaming of since I was a kid. Coming to UNBC, I know I am going to improve a lot. I am going to work on my weaknesses. I know Steve is going to put lots of effort into helping me. If I am going to pursue soccer afterwards, UNBC is a good spot for me. It’s a great fit.”
“It is unreal. I like the indoor facilities. I like to train indoors. The gym, the changeroom, all that stuff is big for me. I like it. The facilities are very nice. The program that Steve has is all about helping his players improve. It is a huge thing. Everyone is close, everyone is positive. They are all tight, and you can tell from the vibes.”
“Hussein is a Tremendous dribbler and has terrific attacking ability. He fits our attacking needs really well, and has a chance to really contribute here. He gelled seamlessly with our team during his visit to UNBC, and his experience in the PacWest will really help him step in and make a significant impact at U SPORTS level.”
“Teams in the PacWest, there are some very good players. We had a very good team, winning Nationals. We hosted the Nationals in Nanaimo, and there was probably 1000 people there. It was a great experience. One of the best experiences of my life, by far.”
“I like to assist goals. My scoring is going to improve under Steve. I am quick with the ball, and I am a good dribbler. There is nothing I like more than people watching me play. I am not shy. It makes me play better.”
