    Not bad! Hard to tell his speed because the college defenders are mostly so poor and of unknown speed. But he seems to accelerate well given his size. He also showed so decent touch and vision. Hopefully he lights them Magyars up!

    I've seen him play in virtually every Dartmouth home game. He arrived as a large, strong, but somewhat lumbering center forward who, if the opposing defender was sufficiently patient, would eventually cough up the ball. He departed leaner and much more canny as a player. Good header of the ball, scoring some nice goals, especially on crosses from the left where Dartmouth had an excellent winger with a good left foot. Eduvie missed much of the first half of his last season because of a preseason injury, but he came on very strong in the last several games of the season. In fact, despite playing in only 4 of the team's 7 Ivy league games, he was the number one scorer in the league with 1.25 goals/game (5 goals; tied with another player who played 7 games) and his 1 assist placed him as the highest point scorer at 2.75 ppg, more than a point above the #2.

    FYI, here is a link to an article on the Dartmouth College Men's Soccer website about the adventures of Eduvie Ikoba and Justin Donawa, both '19 Dartmouth grads, in European soccer. The story predates the above info about Ikoba's move. Donawa is from Bermuda and was a very good college level winger; enjoyable to watch.
