Tyrone Mears: Sounders fullback, Southern New Hampshire University student

Tyrone Mears is more than just a defender for the Seattle Sounders: He’s also a student at Southern New Hampshire University.


In a video series on MLSSoccer.com, Mears takes viewers inside a day in his life as he balances his life as a professional athlete with his studies. He is working toward a degree in Criminal Justice in his free time away from the pitch.


Mears has started 35 matches for the Sounders in regular season and postseason play in 2016, logging over 3,000 minutes and recording three assists.
