Loyola soccer alum Timmy Mehl—a 2014 Loyola graduate who most recently competed in the 2018 NCAA College Cup with Indiana University—signed a professional contract with North Carolina FC, the club announced today (Jan. 23).
Said North Carolina FC Head Coach Dave Sarachan about Mehl: “Timmy comes from an outstanding collegiate program that had great success this season. He played a huge role in their back line and will provide us another center back option. He is comfortable on the ball and playing out of the back under pressure, which will be important in our way of playing.”
Mehl, an All Big-Ten defender for the Hoosiers in 2018, will now play for the pro club in Cary, NC. North Carolina FC is a member of the USL Championship (formerly United Soccer League).
