A transfer from Wheaton (Mass.) College, Jeffrey was a two-sport star at the NCAA Division III school, earning all-conference honors on the soccer pitch as a freshman in 2009 and All-American honors on the track in 2010.  In two soccer seasons for the Lyons, Jeffrey played in 41 games, scoring 18 points on five goals and eight assists and he was a member of Wheaton's 4x400 relay team that won the national championship at the 2010 NCAA Division III Outdoor Track and Field Championships.

"We are very excited for Cecil," said Wheaton College soccer head coach Matt Cushing.  "His goal was to play at an elite Division I program and he can achieve this at Bradley under Coach (Jim) DeRose. 

"Cecil is a tremendous talent with a huge upside," Cushing added.  "He has a great work rate to go with great feet.  He is very athletic and an exceptional ball-winner, and he is a great kid who is very coachable."

As a high school soccer player, Jeffrey earned all-league, all-state and All-New England honors at The Rivers School, helping his prep school team to a runner-up finish in the Independent School League, as well as the New England Class B Championship.

"Cecil, like Alexei, has impacted us from his first step on campus," said Bradley soccer head coach Jim DeRose.  "He is perhaps our most-skillful player, along with Bryan Gaul, and his confidence and comfort level on the ball are of the highest level. 

"Cecil's background and club experience in the Boston area and abroad in his native Trinidad and Tobago, coupled  with his natural athletic gifts, give us a dimension we really need," DeRose added.  "Two years of college soccer at one of Division III's best programs, with one of Division III's top coaches in Matt Cushing, has more than prepared Cecil to compete right away.
