GUYANA’S Omari Glasgow is currently in Atlanta attending a ‘University ID’ try-out in front of eight National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division One coaches, considered the ‘Crème De La Crème’ of University football.

The 17-year-old, who hails from Beterverwagting (BV) and plays for the Fruta Conquerors football club, will look to impress coaches from Clemson University, Wake Forest, Notre Dame, North Carolina State University, University of South Florida, Gonzaga, Liberty University, Virginia Tech, and Georgetown.

Glasgow has represented Guyana at the U-17 (2019 CONCACAF Championships) and U-20 (2020 CONCACAF Championships) levels, and scored against The Bahamas when Guyana won 4-0 during the Golden Jaguars’ FIFA 2022 Qatar World Cup qualifiers.

The forward’s try-out in Atlanta was made possible by Albert Cappell. Cappell is responsible for a number of student-athletes securing collegiate football scholarships at various levels across the US.

Curtez Kellman, the current captain at Daytona State College, was the last player to benefit from Cappell’s generosity.
