Hannes Vidstroem '28 Recruiting Profile

My name is Hannes and I am a Center back from American International College. This fall I played 14 matches for AIC, starting in 8 of 9 NE10 (D2) games, and had a successful individual freshman year. As a 6'4, 190 lbs defender, I bring strong physicality, aerial dominance, and a consistent ability to read the game. I am a versatile RCB who thrives in physical environments and performs reliably under pressure. I have strong build-up play, effectively breaking defensive lines with accurate vertical passes and strategic long balls. 

Before college, I played 5 years in Sweden for Karlstad Fotboll, where I spent 3 years in the academy and progressed to senior football in my final years (Swedish third division). During my time at the club, I had the honor of being coached by Sven-Göran Eriksson (Svennis, former England National Coach) and Albert Bunjaki (former Kosovo National Coach). Additionally, I was selected to represent my region in my age group.
