Alexi Velazquez

Joining the Rutgers University-Newark coaching staff in 2021 will be graduate assistant Alexi Velazquez. Velazquez joins the staff after finishing third in scoring for the Rangers of Drew University in 2018. In that season, Velazquez netted seven goals and added four assists, good for 18 points. During his career, he helped his team win the 2017 Landmark Conference while also making an appearance in the NCAA Sweet 16. In 2018 he added an ECAC Championship to his ledger. 

A resident of Kearny, NJ, Velazquez joined the Rutgers University-Newark coaching staff to gain experience at the collegiate level while simultaneously continuing his education. He has a brother, Daniel Velazquez, who also plays soccer. He wants his coaches and the team to remember him for putting his best foot forward everyday and his desire to get better one day at a time.
