HERKIMER, NY – Generals midfielder Femi Kaffo (London, England) signed a national letter of intent with the Golden Eagles who went 12-5-3 last season and compete in the California Collegiate Athletic Association. Kaffo will be joining a program which qualified for the NCAA Division II national tournament and advanced to the West Region semi-finals.

In Kaffo’s two seasons at Herkimer he helped guide them to two Mountain Valley conference championships, two Region III championships and two NJCAA national tournament appearances. He was a first team All-Conference and Region III selection. Kaffo was also selected as a first team NJCAA and NSCAA All-American.

“Femi is a great attacking player with an unbelievable work ethic,” said Head Men’s Soccer Coach Pepe Aragon. “He worked extremely hard in both of his seasons here at Herkimer to receive his scholarship.”  “I am confident that he will do great things at Cal State!”
