Subsequent to this, he was approached again for his 8th grade year and Nate moved there to start his full time residency. The main draw for Nate to move to IMG Academy was to play DA soccer in a residency environment. Before his time at IMG, Nate played for the Baltimore Celtic 2005 team (1st to 4th ranked nationally during his tenure). They were Maryland State Cup Champions two consecutive years. Nate is an honor student and he volunteers with special needs athletes.
