The Next
Level
Where are they now?
2007 – 2008
Congratulations to David Schumaker who has signed to play at Atlanta
Christian College next year. David leaves ICC holding most of the
offensive records for this school, most notably being goals, assists, and
points in a season. This past season Schumaker was chosen as NJCAA
Player of the Week as well as being voted Region 23 Player of the Year.
“David was one of the best offensive players I have ever had the pleasure to
coach and on top of what he could do on the field he was a great young man
off the field, he will be sorely missed here next year”, said Coach Mike
Sullivan. David was at the top or near the top all season long in the
national offensive categories and I am sure he will continue that trend at
Atlanta Christian. They are getting a great player and I know he will
do well next year for them.
Congratulations to Kriton Vogel who has signed to play at Belhaven
University next year. Kriton leaves ICC holding numerous school
records for goalkeeping and was consistently in the top 30 in the nation all
year long in goalkeeping statistics. This past season Vogel was voted
all-state and also was awarded Distinguished Academic All-American status.
“Kriton had a season in the goal like I have never seen, he was absolutely
fantastic in the goal, we had a great team but when we didn’t play our best
Kriton kept us in the match making one unbelievable save after another,”
said Coach Mike Sullivan. We are really going to miss him next year
but I know that Belhaven is getting a quality player and I would expect to
see him in their starting line-up sooner rather than later.
2006 - 2007
Morgan Weatherford signs with Delta State University
Congratulations to Morgan Weatherford, who has signed to play at Delta
State University next season. Morgan was a two year starter at ICC and was
one of the most valuable players we had over those two seasons. "I have had
coaches ask me to talk about Morgan and I always tell them he plays way
above his size,” said Indians head coach Mike Sullivan. “Morgan played
central midfield for us here at ICC and at his size you wouldn’t think he
would be as effective as he was in that role. But he was one of the toughest
players I’ve ever had and I’ll really miss being able to write his name down
on the board to start at central midfield next year. I am certain that
Morgan will do well at DSU because he will fight as hard as anyone to get in
that starting line-up, I think Coach Allen will be very happy with him next
year."

Luke Stanford with Delta State University
Congratulations to Luke Stanford who has signed to play at Delta State
University next season. Luke was a two-year starter at ICC, team captain,

because of everything he brought to this team, it was a privilege to coach him
and I know that he will do well at Delta State next season, " said Coach Mike
Sullivan. Luke is the son of Ms. Dale Stanford.

Mcgeown Signs with Belhaven College.
Congratulations to Michael Mcgeown as the two-year ICC team captain signed
with Belhaven College in Jackson. “I had two good years playing for Coach
(Mike) Sullivan at Itawamba,” said Mcgeown right after he signed. “I had a great
time at ICC and I’m looking forward to the upcoming season at Belhaven.”
Last year's Indian MVP was a 2005 All-Region 23 selection and he finished his
career at Itawamba Community College with 7 goals and 10 assists. “I’m
really excited that Michael will be continuing his collegiate career here in
Mississippi,” said the ICC fourth-year head coach. "He'll be sorely missed not
only for his soccer skills but his leadership, as well. I've never coached a kid
that wanted to win more than Michael."

for me to coach him and I know he will do well at Delta State”, said Coach Mike
Sullivan. Scooter started every game both seasons. He is the
son of Edward and Natalie Kellum of Amory.
