Minico High senior Scott McArthur signed a National Letter of Intent on Tuesday to play soccer for Brigham Young University-Hawaii.

McArthur was a standout midfielder during his senior year at Minico after moving in from West Virginia. He was a team captain, scored five goals and tallied 10 assists.

"He was what I liked to call the peacemaker of the game. He always played the ball really cool," said Minico head coach Armando Tapia. "He distributed the ball to the key players and he had a lot to do with assisting to my top scorer. I have no doubt he will do great on the next level."

The BYU-Hawaii Seasiders are coached by Jeff Miller and compete at the NCAA Division II level in the Pacific West Conference. Last year's roster featured players from seven different countries and eight states.
