Nicholas Adamcyzk To Play Soccer at Elon

After an extended recruiting process and having received offers to attend and play soccer for several NCAA Division 1 schools, Piedmont Academy Cougar Nicholas Adamczyk committed to Elon University as a student-athlete.

Elon is an NCAA Division 1 school competing in the Colonial Athletic Association. He was recruited by the University of Virginia, University of North Carolina Chapel Hill, Virginia Tech, the University of South Carolina and George Mason University among others.

Nick’s commitment to Elon has been highlighted on TopDrawerSoccer.com. He will execute his National Letter of Intent on or around February 4, 2015.

After he made his first visit to Elon, it was at the top of the list. A positive experience visiting with coaches, player and the academic staff made him feel welcome.

Further research into the academic opportunities on offer helped him decide that the North Carolina school was the right place for him.

“Academics are very important in our family and as I thought about what I wanted to do after soccer, Elon offers the curriculum that matches my interests, the Chemistry/Chemical Engineering dual-degree program,” he told TopDrawerSoccer.com.

“When you do the research, Elon is regularly recognized for its academic excellence and focus on developing their students and that’s what I was looking for in a school.”

The soccer program, which makes regular appearances in the NCAA tournament, recently switched conferences, and Nick is hopeful of helping the team continue to win accolades on the field.

“Elon has a documented tradition of success on the pitch and I‘m looking forward to be a contributing team member as we compete in the CAA,” he said.
