Former General Anderson wins NCAA DII National Championship

HERKIMER, NY – Former Herkimer Generals men’s soccer player Charlie Anderson (Southampton, England), who helped win two NJCAA DIII National Championships in 2011 and 2012, now has a third with the Lynn Knights after his team defeated Charleston (W.Va) 3-2 last Saturday (12/6) for the 2014 NCAA DII National Championship.

Anderson, a forward under Head Men’s Soccer Coach Pepe Aragon, was a two time All-American and is now the first men’s soccer graduate of Herkimer College to ever win a national championship.

“Charlie winning three national championships in four years of his college career is unbelievable,” said Aragon. “The Herkimer soccer family is extremely proud of the success he has had!”
