Hi,
My name is Raphael Eccher. I am a MLS Next player for Jacksonville Armada Pro Academy, set to graduate in the Class of 2026. My preferred positions are in midfield, where I excel at leading my team in both attacking and defending. I thrive in high-pressure situations and enjoy the intellectual and physical challenges they bring. Working alongside my coaches, Elmar Bolowich, an accomplished national collegiate head coach has been a fantastic experience.

I thrive in high-pressure situations and enjoy the intellectual and physical challenges they bring. Working alongside my coaches, Elmar Bolowich, an accomplished national collegiate head coach has been a fantastic experience.
This past season, I had the honor of being named to the All-First Coast: The Times-Union's 2024-25 team for high school boys soccer, which recognized the top players in the region. Additionally, on May 12, 2025, I was recognized as the All Gateway Conference: Academic Athlete for 2024/25, having achieved the highest GPA in Boys Soccer.
The classroom though is my number one priority and my academics come first. I have to work hard for my grades and have learned valuable time management skills. I am enrolled in the International Baccalaureate (IB) program at Samuel W. Wolfson School for Advanced Studies, where I strive to excel both academically and athletically. I currently hold a SAT score of 1550 and a 4.83 GPA.
Looking ahead, my aspiration is to capture the attention of a college coach who recognizes my strengths and envisions a fit for me on their team. I aspire to contribute to a college team, with the aim of winning championships together.
Thank you for taking the time to get to know me!
Raphael
