Felipe Oliveira Right at Home With Yellowjackets

First-Team All-UMAC selection in 2023

SUPERIOR, Wis.- In the last year and a half in the Twin Ports, Felipe Oliveira has already made quite a name for himself on the pitch.

In his first season with the UW-Superior men’s soccer team, Oliveira was a First-Team All-UMAC selection, scoring five goals while adding three assists. In 23 games, the Goshen College transfer started a team-leading 22 games (tied with Jake Kidd).

“I don’t think you can ask for a better year than coming in (and) winning,” says Oliveira, who also credits his team’s culture for his breakout 2023 season. “I feel like the biggest thing though is, this team actually feels like a family to me, and I think that we’re here to do special things this year.”

In addition to playing for UWS, Oliveira has also made a name for himself at Duluth FC, playing with the Bluegreens since the summer of 2022.
