Matthew Vowinkel '17 Drafted to FC Cincinnati

Congratulations to Matthew Vowinkel of the Class of 2017 on being the second pick of the third round of the 2021 MLS SuperDraft. Vowinkel has been drafted to FC Cincinnati! 

As a freshman soccer player, Vowinkel was voted Best in League. His sophomore year, he was given the rare opportunity to join the Varsity Soccer team here at Chaminade. As his high school career progressed, Vowinkel was not only voted Gatorade's New York State Player of the year, but he also became a two-time All-American player for soccer. Upon graduating, Vowinkel received a full scholarship to Hofstra University to play for the Hofstra Pride.

Coach Mike Gallagher said of Vowinkel, "Matt was one of the most complete players we have ever had. He is immensely talented, but his hard work and grit impressed me the most."
