Opis

Welcome to the true story of my life. From a modest upbringing in a town never before exposed to soccer, to the playing fields of competitive NCAA Division I soccer. From the plush grass fields, coaching next to farms in the suburbs, to the concrete courts and metal fences that surrounded them in NYC. I would be left to find my own way in a world where anything could happen and often did. The tragedy, the violence, the assaults and the murders would all impact me. Soccer would expose me to a world many don't even know exists. I am forever grateful for all the great people the game has introduced me to, all the beautiful cultures that have been shown to me and most of all the lasting relationships I have been able to establish. This is a journey that doesn't require you to be a soccer junkie to appreciate. It is a real story about my life's journey so far - My life in concrete soccer cities.
