Game 1 in the books at the 2022 IHSSCA Senior All-Star Classic at Naperville North. Team Green holds on for 3-2 victory.

All kinds of offense tonight in our 6:15 match. With 5 to go, Team White leads 4-1.

The final whistle has blown and Team White takes the nightcap, 2-1. Thanks to the athletes, coaches and families who joined us tonight. A lot of great soccer on display. Can't wait to see where these athletes continue their careers.

Wow, what a night hosting the Illinois Senior All-Star Classic in partnership with the IHSSCA! A night to celebrate great high school careers and college recruiting. Thanks to all who helped promote, organize and participate and to the more than 50 college coaches that attended!

Be great without being high maintenance. Show up on time, wear the right stuff, be coachable, support your teammates & give 100% every time you practice/play. High maintenance is hard. Coaches love low maintenance players who buy into the process. You’re what makes coaching fun!

Our friends at Fundació Brafa in Barcelona sent us this incredible, poignant video that has been going viral in Spain. Sport must belong to our kids, and their competitions must be about them, not us adults. If that doesn't work for you, as the kids say, "Don't come."

"I haven't always recruited for the best talent. I've taken a few guys who would fit for different reasons. Leadership. Toughness" - Tom Izzo

“I look at recruiting as the process that matches a university to an individual. It’s the process of us identifying what our needs are, and going out and finding kids who want what we have.” >> Chris Dailey, UConn WBB

In recruiting: prospects need to “go where you are loved” don’t try to force your way on a roster that doesn’t want you

Perception and angle are everything!!!

Congrats Adam!

(1/13) Some recruiting thoughts. Might not pertain to all of you, but probably to most of you. Sometimes recruits (and parents) are laser-focused for so long on getting a soccer scholarship that they forget the bigger picture
