Coach Snape on Graziano: “Nick attended one of our college prep camps and it was apparent from the first minute of camp to the last minute of camp that he is a highly motivated person who is determined to succeed in whatever he does. He is combative midfielder who is fiery, brave and aggressive in the tackle. He also possesses good technique which will help adapt quickly to our style of play. His left foot has the ability to unlock organized defenses with sublime passes and crosses. Nick welcomes any challenge thrown at him, and I believe his ‘fighter mindset’ will raise the level of intensity and quality within our playing environment.”
