3 Questions for Hampel
Biggest Soccer Influence? "Paul Scholes because when I was younger, I was told I looked like him by my first coach and began to follow him and Manchester United. He inspired me because he was a primary facilitator of the United team and was a workhorse. He also was part of a team that won nearly every competition they competed in and would even score goals."

Do you have a hero or idol? "My heroes are my Mom and my younger siblings."

Why Yale? "I chose Yale because they cultivate supportive communities, enriching experiences, and authentic relationships by utilizing the residential college system. Yale provides the incredible opportunity to learn from the best professors in the world surrounded by a population of driven and inspiring students."

Stannard on Hampel: "Henry is a welcome addition that came to us late after attending an ID camp. He is a versatile defender that actually loves the defensive side of the ball, which is most important in our program. He is a player that will give everything he has on and off the field and will be extremely coachable and a selfless teammate. He will also balance being part of the Navy ROTC program at Yale."
