Edgar Galvez a recent graduate from Layton High in Layton Utah will be playing for Mustang soccer at Western Wyoming Community College in Rock Springs WY.
Edgar had a superb high school career for the Layton High Lancers. During the spring 2017 season, his sophomore year, the LHS soccer team won the UHSAA 5A State Championship in penalty shootout. His junior year the Layton High team qualified for the 6A State Tournament bowing out in the first round. During his senior year Edgar scored two goals and had three assists for the Lancers. In the spring of 2019 Edgar and the Lancers finished 2nd in the regular season for Region I and advanced to the 6A UHSAA Quarterfinals.
Beside playing for Layton High, Edgar also played with Gremio FC for three years. During his time with Gremio he played in many matches and tournaments include playing in Oregon, Colorado and Nevada. Galvez was also part of the Xolos de Tijuana were he part of the squad that won the President's Cup in Mesquite NV and placing second place in the President's Cups in Colorado and Utah.
Galvez received a Certificate of Excellence in May of 2019 from the Latinos In Action group. A fond memory Edgar has while playing soccer is when he went to Pachuca Mexico for a tryout and played during a magnitude 7.1 earthquake.
Edgar came to the Western Wyoming campus during the spring and impressed in his tryout. We feel that Edgar could play a vital role in the WWCC attack. He has the versatility to play as an outside mid, an attacking mid or a forward. We are excited to add this excellent young man to the Mustang Soccer Family. Good luck to Edgar Galvez during his academic and athletic career at Western Wyoming Community College?
