I am proud of all my children's accomplish- ments. Here is one that needs publishing. Bryan has finally fulfilled a longtime dream of making the Brigham Young University soccer team. After the huge disappointment of last season he has finally made the team. This is his official picture on the teams website. http://soccer.byu.edu/ Now he just has to go take the starting position. I've always thought he was one of the best goalkeepers I have ever seen, but I'm his Dad. This is true validation of his talent and dedication. The team travels to Fiji in May to play two games with the Fiji national team. He will fly over his brother Brandon in Samoa on his way to Fiji. How cool is that?!BYU plays in the Western Division of the USL's PDL (Professional Development League) It is essentially professional soccer as BYU does not play NCAA. His coach called him the other day to go work out with REAL SALT LAKE - the MSL team in Utah. One of their keepers was gone for awhile and they need one to take his place. It will be a great opportunity for Bryan to measure his skills against some of the best. You never know, they might just ask him to stay on. After all, he cuts an imposing figure in goal at 6'6" - 210lbs. RSL has a practice field about 500 yards from my office. Guess who will be sneaking over to watch a bit? Keegan, his younger brother, is the back-up keeper for Mountain View High School varsity, the same school Bryan and Brandon played for. He plays full time on the JV team. Not bad for a freshman. It will be a fun soccer season! GO COUG'S! GO BRUINS!
