WEST MILFORD - Look out Big D, the "Big E" is headed your way. That's exactly the impact that Eric Klenofsky hopes to enjoy once he lands in Dallas.

COLLEGE BOUND - DePaul senior soccer player Eric Klenofsky gave a verbal commitment to Southern Methodist University where he will play for the Dallas, TX based college in the fall of 2013. Klenofsky recently gave a verbal commitment to attend Southern Methodist University, realizing his dream of signing a professional contract would take serious offer from a high-profile soccer program

Great article and welcome to SMU Eric. Entry to BE and exposure to the Pro's were big factors for him.

What a great article - tons of positive press about SMU and SMU Soccer!

"I didn't have a ride to campus and SMU coaches [under NCAA recruiting rules] couldn't provide one, so I walked about two miles from my hotel to campus. Once I saw the campus and the facilities I hoped they'd offer," Klenofsky said.

I'm sure many of us would have gladly given him a ride from his hotel if we knew he needed one! :D

"Klenofsky chose the Mustangs over mainly Duke, Virginia, Pittsburgh, Wake Forest and West Virginia."

Nice. That's a heavy-hitting group we beat for this kid.

Welcome to SMU!

Wow, this kid sounds like a good pickup. Should be a good foundation for the defense.
