Mercer University Men's Soccer Recruiting

Start with Brad Ruzzo, the head coach. Mercer University carries a larger men's soccer staff, with 5 assistant coaches listed beside the head coach. On staffs this size recruiting is usually split, so address the head coach and include the assistant most likely to run recruiting.

As general context, NCAA Division I is the highest level of college soccer. D1 programs may offer athletic scholarships, and most D1 rosters are largely settled a year or more before a recruiting class enrolls. Mercer University sits in the middle of its division by Massey rank, which is where well prepared club players who reach out early tend to find real conversations.

Mercer University is a private mid sized school on an urban campus with about 4,500 undergraduates. At a mid sized school the men's soccer staff typically works with admissions but does not control it, so have your transcript ready when a coach asks. The acceptance rate is 69 percent, and the middle SAT range is 1160 to 1350, so include your grades and any test scores in the first message.
