Vincent Bezecourt, a 2016 graduate of St. Francis College, Brooklyn Heights, is currently playing his first season with the New York Red Bulls II of the United Soccer League.

He recently scored his first two goals of his professional career in a 5-0 victory over the Harrisburg City Islanders.

He spent two years as a midfielder for the Terriers’ men’s soccer squad. The Aire sur l’Adour, France, native helped lead St. Francis to its second straight Northeast Conference championship and NCAA berth in 2014.

That same season, he finished second in the conference with six assists, which earned him a spot on the conference’s Second Team.

In 2015, he led the Terriers with seven goals and 17 points – both good for fourth in the conference. He was a First Team all conference selection and a Third Team All-American.
