Tyler Wilkinson has been added to the WWCC 2012 Mustang Team. Tyler is a senior at Rock Springs High here in Rock Springs WY. Tyler will be a 4 year letter winner for the Tigers and brings a lot of experience from the Wyoming High School ranks to WWCC. Tyler primarily played goalkeeper for his first 3 years at RSHS. As a freshman he played in 2 matches at the WY State Cup. As a junior he helped his high school return to the state tournament. This year Tyler was moved to a defensive position and has mainly played an outside man marking defender. Tyler is a tall athletic young man that possesses a big leg and a competitive fire and drive that will serve him well as a Mustang. As a junior Tyler was an All-Region Goalkeeper and a 2nd team 4A All state Keeper.
We currently believe Tyler will be a bigger benefit to the Mustangs as a field player this fall but we will give Tyler a chance to test the waters at the keeper position if he so chooses. Tyler has been a huge part of the 2012 Tigers defensive success. RSHS has already qualified for the WY state cup and wrap up their regular season Region crown. Tyler demonstrated his leg on the football field as he was the RSHS football kicker this fall. Tyler also scored a goal off of a 50+ yard free kick against his rival Green River High. Tyler's goal helped the Tigers tie that match, that they would later win in overtime. Tyler will focusing on his academic including his other passion art. Congrats to Tyler and we are lucky to have him in the WWCC family.
