Hi everyone. Cabj12, thanks for clarifying the above for everyone. Jeremiah and I were mistaken for each other throughout our entire lives post high school. I did indeed play professionally in Japan but also in Indonesia (Jakarta) and Holland. Wonderful international experience. In total- 6 years traveling and playing. I was just lucky.
Just wanted to say hello and that I think it is great that soccer is still a big part of SC life. I haven't been able to keep up with the talent, but I know that Hyslop and Pearce along with alot of other guys I grew up with are doing a great job continuing the tradition by growing solid SC soccer talent.
As for the names mentioned, it's an honor to be remembered up with some of the great ones I played with: the Suarez's, Coggins, Hunter Richardson and Jody Redmond, Andy Kwon, and many many others at RHS (Joe Fleming)... (Nobody mentioned any of the guys from TL Hanna, like Kevin Kinney and Chris Morehead). one name not mentioned is Martin Jeppesen. He was a Danish exchange student at RHS during my sophomore year at RHS. He was your typical, big-man European striker.. could post up beautifully, use his head, and lay off balls perfectly. He not only scored a ton of goals but assisted gracefully. Sure, it's not easy to remember such a flash-in-the-pan, but he was a great one.
