Wasim Aka is one step closer to scoring goals for his hometown team.
UNBC Men’s Soccer head coach Steve Simonson announced the local striker has committed to the program.
Aka, a recent graduate of Duchess Park Secondary, is red-shirting this season and has been training daily with the TWolves since early August.
The PGYSA alum is studying General Business at UNBC and figures to play a big part in the team’s future successes down the road.
“UNBC has such a great community,” shared Aka. “My teammates have made me feel so welcome and Coach Steve has such great connection, patience and understanding with his players.”
A natural goal scorer with speed to burn, Aka was the third player with Northern B.C. roots to commit to the TWolves in 2025, joining the likes of Luis Rodrigues and Mion Kinugasa.
“Wasim is a talented local player with significant potential to develop into a key contributor at the U Sports level. He possesses exceptional athleticism and a natural creative flair on the field. Surrounded by quality players, he will have the ideal environment to take the necessary steps to thrive at this level. I’m very excited to watch his growth and see the impact he will have on the program in the years ahead,” added Simonson.
