Now let's meet the 2022 Carroll Men's Soccer signees.
 
Phillip Camacho / Midfielder & Defender / Bullhead City, Ariz. / Mohave High School
 
Phillip Camacho joins the Carroll Men's Soccer program following a decorated career in Arizona and Las Vegas at both the prep and club levels.

In addition to that, his Downtown Las Vegas club team won the National Presidents Cup Championship.
 
Camacho on why he chose Carroll: "I chose Carroll to continue my athletic career with soccer and more importantly to continue my academic career as well. Carroll College was the right fit for me because it has my degree of interest which is civil engineering and I will be able to play soccer as well."
 
Coach Mello on Camacho: "A goal scorer extraordinaire and another Downtown SC alumni. Phillip is expected to raise our goal count this Fall. He's a cheeky mid who will require a lot of attention from opponents. Phillip can burn by defenders with his sprinter speed."

Coach Mello on Webster: "A midfield maestro who can spray the ball to a teammate on a dime. A team leader and captain of Eric Wynada's championship Downtown Vegas SC, Adam is a 90 minute player whose fitness and ability often dictates the outcome of a tight match."

Klooster on why he chose Carroll: "I was looking for a small, catholic college out west that would help science students continue in grad school. I also wanted to play soccer in college. I contacted Coach Mello, who suggested I keep working on my skills. I set my goal and here we are – best decision ever!"
 
Coach Mello on Klooster: "Successful in all positions in the middle of the pitch. Michael reads the match well and has the talent to find open teammates, as well as crack a shot on frame. He will be a valuable addition to our line-up."

 
 
Blake Combs / Forward / Tacoma, Wash. / Silas HS
 
Blake Combs makes his way to Carroll from the Pacific Northwest. Playing club soccer for Washington Premier, Combs had an elite ability to find the back of the net.

He is highly regarded in the Seattle area as an all-round player.
 
Combs on why he chose Carroll: I chose Carroll because I really like the location. I also believe the soccer team has really good potential this season and I like that Carroll is known for good education."
 
Coach Mello on Combs: "A forward who has a knack for framing the goal and making darting runs into the box to finish. Blake is strong on the ball and has a quick release on his shot, all traits of a true striker."


 
Jacob Dahl / Forward & Midfielder / Boise, Idaho / Bishop Kelly HS
 
Jacob Dahl is a skilled offensive player from Boise who will join Carroll Men's Soccer this fall. Dahl was a team captain for his high school team, who provided some timely goals throughout their state championship run. He was also an all-conference player who provides a great deal of versatility.
 
Coach Mello on Dahl: "A top starter off state champion Bishop Kelly HS. Jacob was instrumental in scoring some huge goals on their run for gold. He is another cerebral player who will blend nicely into our rotation."
 
The Saints just wrapped up their spring season, in which they went 3-0-1, to springboard them toward what is looking to be a successful run in the fall. They will play their first game of the season on August 16 against MSU-Billings at Nelson Stadium.
