Athletic Excellence

The 6-foot, 130-pound senior defender led the Spartans to a 21-2 record and the Class AAA state championship this past season. Seams scored 14 goals and passed for eight assists, also anchoring a defense that allowed just 17 goals and posted 14 shutouts. A three-time First Team All-State selection, he was the 2022 West Virginia Coaches Association Defender of the Year just two seasons after being named the WVCA’s Midfielder of the Year as a sophomore.
