“Hauroa finds great scoring positions in the box. If you give him an opportunity to get the ball from a service, he has great directional touch to put the ball on goal. He is a big player and a bit deceptive because he can also create his own shot.”

Athletic Excellence

The 6-foot-2, 185-pound senior forward led the Soaring Eagle to a 17-1 record and the Class 3A state championship this past season.

The captain of the Tahitian Under-17 Men’s National team, Morgant played for the full Tahitian Men’s National Team during qualifying play for the 2022 World Cup. He concluded his prep soccer career with 61 goals and six assists in 27 games.
