RICHMOND, VA - (Monday, April 9, 2007) - The Richmond Kickers are pleased to add attacking power to the 2007 roster with the recent signing of Ricky Schramm out of Georgetown University.

A native of Eastchester, New York, Schramm was selected in the third round, 37th overall, by DC United (MLS) in the Major League Soccer SuperDraft in January. A proven goal-scorer, Schramm tallied 39 goals and 15 assists for 93 points over his collegiate career at Georgetown. A two-time team MVP, Schramm finished his Georgetown career tied for third on the school's all-time list in career goals and tied for fourth all-time with career points. Leading the team in scoring all four years, he was selected to the 2006 National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA) Men's Division I All-Northeast Region Third Team. Ranked third in the BIG EAST with 10 goals and fourth in the league with 24 points his senior year, he earned All-BIG EAST second team honors following the 2006 season after being named BIG EAST Offensive Player of the Year in 2004 and All-BIG EAST third team in 2005.

"We are fortunate to have signed Ricky so close to the start of the season," comments Richmond Kickers Head Coach Leigh Cowlishaw. "He makes intelligent runs, combines well with others and is a proven goal scorer. He is keen to make it back to MLS and we are happy to provide him with a place to showcase his ability."
