Freshman Kevin Korenik has been playing soccer his whole life. "I fell in love with soccer, just the sport in general, the teamwork and the friendships that come along with it," Korenik said.
“I fell in love with soccer, just the sport in general, the teamwork and the friendships that come along with it,” freshman Kevin Korenik said. “I started it when I was six, I was pretty young and just kept playing. I’ve played for two club teams, so I played for Amarillo Rush, and now I’m playing for FC Dallas. I also played for the Junior High Team. Those are the main teams that I’ve played for. Of course, they were just smaller teams. If you have all of the leagues that I’ve played in, I scored probably at least 200 points because I’ve been playing for a while. My favorite memory: it was a warmer day. We were down by, I think, two points at that point, and we scored one goal to get it within a tie, and if we lost, we were out of the tournament. I got the ball on the sideline and started, ran down the sideline, passed it to our forward, he passed it back, and I scored the game to tie, so we ended up going to the next round, which was a pretty good moment, right there.”
