Mercer Island's Rigby Among Three Transfers for SPU Men's Soccer
July 20, 2005

SEATTLE (July 20) ­ Colin Rigby, a native of Mercer Island who played two years of soccer at Denver University, is one of three transfers committed to playing men's soccer for Seattle Pacific University this season.

In addition, the Falcons will be joined by junior college transfers C.J. Moe (Lewis & Clark High School/Spokane Community College) and David Reuhl (Bothell HS/Bellevue CC).

Rigby, who will be a junior for SPU, was an all-KingCo selection as a senior for the Islanders, who were state runners-up in 2001 and '02. He started in 16 games at forward during his first season at Denver but saw action in only eight games last year. Rigby also played for Crossfire Sounders, state champs in '00, '01 and '03.

Reuhl, a former Crossfire teammate of Rigby, was an NWAACC all-star for two seasons at Bellevue, and scored 12 goals as a sophomore in 2003. He was a two-time all-KingCo selection for Bothell.

Moe, a forward, was an all-star in his only season at Spokane CC where he scored six goals last fall. As a senior at Lewis & Clark, he scored 20 goals to earn all-state and Great Spokane League co-offensive MVP honors.

Earlier, Seattle Pacific had received commitments from four freshmen. The Falcons, who were 12-3-2 and ranked 25th nationally last season, open their season Aug. 25 at Chico State.
