Shaftesbury Titan Obonde Steps Up to Sign with Blazers Soccer
The CMU Men's Soccer program is very pleased to announce the commitment of Geno Obonde for the 2024-25 MCAC season. The Shaftesbury High School product is taking his talents on the pitch and in the classroom across the street to CMU's campus where he will join the Blazers soccer family.
The fourth signing of the offseason for the CMU men's soccer program, Blazers co-head coaches Anderson Pereira and Gode Katembo are hard at work rounding out their roster for the upcoming campaign. Obonde adds some more versatility to the team makeup, having slotted in primarily up front throughout his career, but has more recently moved to the backline as a steady defending presence for the Titans. The Blazers' newest recruit was the second-leading scorer for his Shaftesbury squad in his first varsity season of Winnipeg Youth Soccer Association (WYSA) indoor league, and this past March wrapped up his final season there, helping the team to a Boys Championship Group semi-finals appearance, narrowly missing out on a spot in the finals thanks to their West-Winnipeg rival across the Assiniboine River Sturgeon Heights Huskies.

The CMU Men's Soccer program is very pleased to announce the commitment of Aiden Edwards for the 2024/25 MCAC season. The Garden City Collegiate product has the opportunity to make a big impact on the Blazers' back line with a mature game sense and touch not often seen in a rookie.
Edwards comes to CMU from Garden City, where he featured as captain of the Gophers soccer squad in both of his varsity seasons with his school team. Most recently, his Garden City boys indoor team were champions of the first half of the WYSA high school division II league, a win which promoted them up to the top division for the just completed second half. A multi-sport athlete, Edwards also stars as the Gophers' goalkeeper on the varsity handball team, which gives him a different perspective on shutting down the opposition's scoring chances. In addition, as an athlete on the school's track and field team competing in the sprint disciplines, he is able to hone his skills for the pitch making recovery runs and closing out to defend his opposition's attacks. With so many impact roles on his high school teams, it's no wonder Edwards was named the school's Athlete of the Month this past December.
