Biography

Coach Scales on Wekwete
[quote]Kuda may play up top or in the midfield this year. His athletic dimension is so important for us. When he[apos]s moving off the ball and getting into space, he is a very dangerous player to deal with. He[apos]s going to be a real important dimension for our team.[quote]

At Cornell
Wekwete made his Big Red debut in 2003 and followed that up with a strong junior year in which he appeared in all 16 games, starting 11. He picked up his first career goal in a late-season thiller against Princeton. An athletic and versatile player, Wekwete will create problems for opposing defenses with and without the ball.
