Stannard on Pousseu: "David is someone we fortunately found late in the process, but he still had a lot of interest from our Ivy competitors. After attending one of our ID camps, we knew he is someone that had huge potential to help our attack in a variety of ways.  He is a dynamic attacking player that can play as a central striker or out wide. He is two-footed which makes him very unpredictable and has excellent quickness and agility to create his own shot or unbalance the opposing team to create for others. What impresses me even more about David is his willingness to work defensively and his competitive tenacity. Coming from Seacoast and the Center of Excellence project, he will be well-prepared for the college game."
