Gary is someone who has a clear understanding of what it takes to be a successful student-athlete. Whether it's coaching at a high level, or playing at a high level, he understands how to get the best out of an individual.  What I appreciate the most is Gary's is how he implements his personal values/morals into his work.  He'll always stay true to what he believes in which in the end will benefit the student-athlete. As a coach, he has high standards for his players, which encourages that player to set standards for themselves.  Off the field, he puts the person first and understands how to connect with them in a way they can reach their maximum potential. Gary is a trustworthy person who truly cares about the entire individual.

"Gary not only has a love for soccer in itself, he has a true passion for helping, guiding, and mentoring student athletes who want to play at the next level. His perspective and experience is unmatched when it comes to providing athletes with the honest and realistic information they need to go through the recruiting process. The process can be very difficult, overwhelming, and stressful for athletes and their families. Gary knows how to connect with others and get to truly know the person so he can provide them with the best guidance possible."

-Jordan Vejar- Spalding University Women's Head Soccer Coach

Gary has been a huge figure in the college soccer world for well over a decade, garnering experience and coaching countless players. He has a sharp eye for talent and working with him in years past has always been a fantastic experience. My trust in Gary is solid and I have no doubt he will find success in finding fantastic student-athletes and helping them in the next step of their careers. I will without doubt be connected with Gary in the future as we look for potential Marian University Knights.

I can't say enough great things about Gary and his ability to steer high school players in the right direction.  His results speak for themselves but more importantly the positive impact that Gary had on my daughter Catherine throughout the college recruiting process was immense.  It's difficult to understand the process alone which makes it hard on kids and their parents.  The personal coaching and more importantly the personal impact Gary had on Catherine was key to achieving her dream of playing D1 college soccer.  Gary's program and his passion are a big part of my daughter's success in becoming a college D1 soccer player.

As parents of an athlete interested in playing soccer at the next level, the recruiting process is exciting but also frustrating and confusing.  Gary’s perspective and his long experience coaching all levels of soccer including high-level club and Division 1 helped us tremendously.  As a coach, he has the perfect approach and style for us as parents, but more importantly, with our daughter.  Not only did he help us navigate the recruiting process, but was hugely valuable to us, as we had many questions about ID Camps, Showcases, Communicating with coaches, film, level of play, etc etc.  Ultimately, our daughter committed to playing Division 1 soccer.  Gary helped us to find the right fit for her and we’re excited about the next stage of her soccer journey.
