Career

College

Swinehart grew up in Worthington, Ohio and played college soccer at Miami University from 1992 to 1995. He finished his college career with 32 career goals, a school record.[1]

Professional

In 1998, Swinehart signed with the Charlotte Eagles in the USISL, where he remained, with the exception of two brief loan periods with the Richmond Kickers in 2004[2] and 2005.[3]

Swinehart was named the MVP of the 2000 USL Second Division championship game, and in 2001, after the Eagles moved up to the USL First Division, he was named to the USL-1 All League First Team. In 2004, after the Eagles returned to the USL Second Division, Swinehart considered retiring, but decided to continue with the team.[4] He was named to the USL-2 All League first team in 2005, 2006 and 2008, while in 2008 he was also named as the USL-2 MVP.[5]

On March 10, 2010, Swineheart announced his retirement from professional soccer.[6] At his retirement, he was the Eagles' all-time leading goal scorer and was with the team longer than any other player. He was six time First Team All-League, and was part of two National Championship squads with the Eagles.

Swinehart played the amateur team CASL Elite in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup in 2010; his team won their regional qualification group (which also featured NPSL teams FC Tulsa and Atlanta FC) before falling 4-2 to USL Second Division pro side Charleston Battery in the first round of tournament proper.[7]
