CINCINNATI, OH --- FC Cincinnati continues the process of building the team for the 2018 season and have added midfielder Will Seymore and goalkeeper Mark Village from Vancouver Whitecaps FC 2, and forward Russell Cicerone (sis-er-RONI) from Portland Timbers 2, pending federation and USL approval.   

Seymore and Village will join former teammate Sem de Wit, who was a mid-season acquisition last season. Seymore spent three seasons with WFC2, playing in 24 games while starting 13 and assisting on a goal in 2017. He had two assists in 2016 over 18 starts and featured in WCFC2’s playoff wins after joining the club in 2015.

Village spent three seasons with Whitecaps FC 2 playing from 2015-17. This season, the product from Abbotsford, British Columbia made one appearance in goal, posting four saves and collected a USL Save of the Month accolade. He also played one season with Fraser Valley Mariners FC of the USL Premier Development League (PDL). In that season, Village recorded a league high 103 saves with a season-best 11 saves on the final match day against Whitecaps FC U-23.

“Mark is a fantastic team guy and will come in and fight for playing time,” said Head Coach Alan Koch. “He has improved every year as a pro and I know will embrace the challenge that lies ahead here in Cincinnati. We look forward to welcoming him to FCC and working with him to have an imprint on our team culture and the quality of our daily work environment.”

He graduated from the University of Fraser Valley (UFV) in 2014 after a five-year career with the Cascades. Village was voted a 2012 Canada West All-Star and team Most Valuable Player after leading UFV to their best league record at 5-5-4. He made 57 saves in 13 games and broke the team’s single-season record with four clean sheets.

Played 1 game for the Baby Caps last season, but probably would have gotten a few more games had he stayed healthy. Known as a great locker room guy. He's currently the only GK on FCC's roster, though they are in talks to resign Mitch Hildebrandt who is a top USL keeper.  Dual-citizen of the US and Canada.
