The Chattanooga Red Wolves are thrilled to welcome Stefan Cvetanovic, a forward from Belgrade, Serbia, to the 2024 squad, pending league and federation approval.
Cvetanovic played his collegiate years at Oklahoma Wesleyan University from 2018-2023 where he scored 141 goals. In his senior year, Cvetanovic became the NAIA All-Time leading goal scorer with 141, after scoring 39 goals with a 33.6% goals per shot efficiency in his senior season.
Throughout his college career he earned extensive honors including 2023 NAIA Player of the Year, 4X NAIA All-American, 2X KCAC Player of the Year, 4X KCAC Offensive Player of the Year, 4X 1st Team All Region, 4X KCAC 1st Team along with many others.
Cvetanovic joined NPSL Tusla Athletic in the 2023 Open Cup, scoring the sole goal and game winner of the match to advance them to the second round of the tournament.
“I'm honored to be joining the Chattanooga Red Wolves...[I] can't wait to bring my best to the
field, contribute to the team's success, and share some incredible moments with the amazing fans! I'm ready for a season full of passion, teamwork, and victories,” said Cvetanovic.
“Stefan is a player we are all very excited about,” said head coach Scott Mackenzie. “His goal record in college is, frankly, otherworldly. His pace, willingness to run behind, movement off the ball, and qualities with both feet make him a great fit for the Red Wolves and an exciting player for the fans to get behind. He is someone that I think will add significant fire power to our attack this year.”
Additional player announcements will be shared on the club’s official social media and website as the 2024 roster continues to grow. The Red Wolves begin the season on Friday, March 15th on the road against Lexington SC and will host Union Omaha for the home opener on Saturday,
March 30th. Season tickets for the upcoming season are on sale now and can be purchased at the event or online.
