Quotes from USD Rugby Staff
Director of Rugby - Kevin Eaton: “ Matthew is going to be an outstanding addition to the Torero rugby family. He is a great leader and player, and we look forward to the lasting impact he will have on our program”
Head Coach- Charlie Purdon: “ Having coached Matthew at Cathedral Catholic HS for two seasons, I’m fortunate to know he is a player of strong moral character, a leader who possesses a growth mindset - always curious/looking for ways to improve his game. He’s a robust ball carrier, aggressive defender and technically very good over the ball at the breakdown. It’s a privilege for me to have the opportunity to continue facilitating his development as a player / person and assist him in reaching his full potential.”
