He's fast, smart and aggressive and has got everything you want in a soccer player.
We didn't have enough players last year to have three full teams at Apollo. This was one way to get additional players on the team and it also helps Sauk Rapids because they haven't started soccer yet.
The kids, regardless of where they're from, listen to the coaches. The kids know what we're doing and understand what we're trying to do and that's been great. Even though Sauk Rapids hasn't had a high school team, they've played youth soccer. So, they're not unfamiliar with the game.
We had always been able to put together three full teams of nothing but Sauk Rapids kids in youth soccer, so I knew the interest was there.
It's been surprisingly painless. I thought things might be a little rougher than they have been. The parents from Apollo have been fairly supportive. But the Sauk Rapids people have been really happy as far as having a program for their kids to play in.
