Keep - meets
WP:GNG criteria. Article could use expansion per
WP:ATD.

NFOOTY as has not played senior international football nor played in a
fully professional league. No indication that subject has garnered significant reliable coverage for any other achievements to satisfy
GNG, the comment above that GNG is met is erroneous as it ignores the fundamental element of GNG that sources must be independent of the subject. Though there are multiple sources in the article, there is very little presented out side of primary sources (e.g. University of Washington, Seattle Sounders, US Soccer websites, organisations with which the player was inherently related). Those third party sources present are brief in the extreme. Only
this comes even close to being a source that could be used to justify GNG. Would need to see much more like this to be satisfied that GNG is met.

Delete as the article, however detailed, is still questionable for independent notability.

Keep. I think the sources cited in the article do add up to meet the threshold of
WP:GNG. Local and specialist information sources are acceptable in establishing notability.
