TORONTO — After being drafted in the third round of the 2023 MLS SuperDraft, forward Charlie Sharp decided to put his dream of playing professional football on hold.
Sharp scored 19 goals and added eight assists as a senior, leading the Broncos to a 17-2-3 record and a third-round appearance in the NCAA tournament where they eventually lost to national runner-up Notre Dame on penalty kicks. Sharp, who scored or assisted in nine of his last 10 matches, ranked first in the NCAA with 0.95 goals per game and 2.30 points per game and was tied for second with seven game-winning goals.
"A bit of unorthodox path that I chose," said Sharp."But I think you're seeing it more now with players that get drafted."As a senior, Sharp was one of three finalists for the 2023 MAC Hermann Trophy, which honours the top NCAA soccer player. The award eventually went to Clemson senior forward Ousmane Sylla.
Despite some niggling injuries, Sharp has five goals and two assists in 16 appearances with TFC 2 this season. He made his first-team debut off the bench May 15 against Nashville."It's been a journey," Sharp added."I've been thankful for every step of the way.
