When asked why Kevin remains on the field coaching both boys and girls teams after an amazingly successful coaching career he remarked, “I coach because I love to help youth soccer players develop, learn and achieve. Many of the players I have worked with over the years have dreams of becoming accomplished players. I encourage my players to establish goals for themselves both on and off the field.  Together, we work toward achieving their goals and reaching their dreams. I want my players to love the game of soccer as much as I do.”
