RAMS SIGN HARRIS
February 24, 2008

FORT WORTH, TX:  Texas Wesleyan University head men’s soccer coach Josh Gibbs announced today the signing of Markus Harris.

Harris, a native of Round Rock, TX, comes to Texas Wesleyan from Texas Christian University where he participated in club soccer.

"Markus has a great deal of pace,” Gibbs commented.  “He is one of the fastest players I have seen with the ball.  Markus gives us a different look up top with his speed and ability on the ball.  Markus is the type of player that can change a game with one run.  I am very excited to add him to our already strong group up top.”

Texas Wesleyan had a solid 2007 season making their second Region VI Tournament appearance in the last three years.  At 4-2-1 in conference play, they earned the second seed in the RRAC Tournament, where they defeated defending champion Huston-Tillotson in penalty kicks before falling in a shootout to UT-Brownsville in the RRAC title match.
