Pacific Lutheran University soccer player Emmanuel Saah is truly making his case as one of the top candidates for this year’s team MVP.
Students around campus describe Emmanuel as always having a smile on his face and staying positive no matter what.
On the field, Emmanuel has been a key player for the Lutes. This season, Emmanuel has scored 2 goals on 9 shots.
This helped lead the Lutes to an impressive 13-5-2 record, and winning the Northwest Conference title for the second consecutive season.
“I truly enjoy playing with the guys that I am playing with and also seeing how much we improve and get better each year” Saah said.
“I’ve made so many memories with these guys and couldn’t be [more] thankful for all the memories. Winning the Northwest Conference twice and beating the University of Puget Sound a few times in style is something I will never forget,” He said.
Emmanuel didn’t see much playing time during his first two years, but he kept working hard and always did what he was told.
Emmanuel knew that his hard work would pay off at some point in his career with the Lutes.
This year, that hard work finally paid off when Emmanuel was given the chance to play under the bright lights. Playing at many home and away games, Saah said it really made his time at PLU great.
“It has been challenging, fun and hard to play, but the reward and growth has been awesome.”
