(Tucson, AZ) The Pima Community College men’s soccer program added a standout high school player to its 2020 recruiting class.
Chris Guzman-Rivera, a forward from Sahuarita High School, will join the Aztecs starting in the 2020-21 season.
Guzman-Rivera played in 21 games this season for the Mustangs scoring 39 goals to go along with six assists. He scored 92 goals and had 48 assists in 82 games for his career.
Coach’s Quote: “Chris is a hard-working, blue collar kid who fits in perfectly with our team,” Pima men’s soccer coach David Cosgrove said. “He’s mature and he’s scored some great goals. We’re looking at him to be an outside midfielder but he does everything well. If you ask him to do a lot of different things, he’ll do them well.”
Guzman-Rivera was named Region Player of the Year, Conference Offensive Player of the Year and Region All-Stars Player of the Year this season.
Guzman-Rivera was a four-year varsity player and was named first team All-Region all four years and first team All-Conference in the final three years.
