At UNC Asheville Tate finished his career with four goals and two assists, earning second-team all-conference honors as a senior.

Professional

Tate was signed to his first professional contract by the Charleston Battery after impressing head coach Michael Anhaeuser during a pre-season trial.[1]

Tate did not make a first team appearance for Charleston in his rookie pro season, but was loaned out to the Wilmington Hammerheads of the USL Second Division for part of the year; it was for the Hammerheads that Tate made his professional debut on June 27, 2009 in a 3–2 win over the Harrisburg City Islanders.[2]

He was not included on the 2011 roster release by Charleston on April 7, 2011.[3]
