COACHES COMMENTS
"Max is a special 2 way player that can really hold the fort down in the MFD 3rd. He is a ball winner, a vocal leader, and the kind of player’s whose US National team and high end college soccer experience at Monmouth will benefit our younger boys. We look for him to be a major cog in the type of team we are and the style of play we are trying to portray in an attacking minded shape that offers balance in centrally."

Max is a composed and skillful central midfielder who is always looking for that killer pass. In the past two seasons Max has played 26 games for the Nor’easters, racking up over 2,160 minutes on the field. At MonmouthUniversity he has become a permanent fixture in their starting eleven, and with this quality and game time comes awards. Max was named to the NSCAA North Atlantic Region First Team, he earned All-Northeast Conference Second Team accolades for the second consecutive season and was named to the NEC All-Tournament Team after helping the Hawks win their second straight. With this quality and passion for the Nor’easters Max Hamilton will look to make a lasting impression on the franchise in 2012. Max was awarded with an honorable mention in the USL PDL team of the week (Week Beginning 5/21).
