San Antonio FC has signed forward Mike Seth to the current roster, the club announced today. Per club policy, terms of the contract were not disclosed. Seth joins after spending the start of the USL season with Phoenix Rising FC.
The 6-1 forward enjoyed an impressive 2016 season with the Colorado Springs Switchbacks, helping his club to a third-place finish in the USL Western Conference standings before being eliminated in the conference quarterfinals by Vancouver Whitecaps FC 2. Seth led the Switchbacks in goals (eight) and assists (five) while tallying 2,074 minutes over 28 regular season matches. Seth also played 90 minutes in the club’s lone playoff game against the Whitecaps. In two seasons with the Switchbacks, Seth appeared in 54 games, scoring 12 goals and recording eight assists.

He is going to add competitiveness, hunger and desire to the group to keep us pushing forward.”

Seth made two starts and recorded four shots in 154 total minutes played while completing 64.5 percent of his passes over the course of his time in Arizona.
