experience family owe strain today worth
It put a little strain on my family, but in the end it was worth it. I owe a lot of where I am today to my experience at Branson.
became behind goals last obsessed score scoring speed using year
I became obsessed with scoring goals. I scored a lot of goals last year just using my speed to get behind the defense. Now I feel I can score in a lot of different ways.
adding ball close finding hitting moving structured technique worked
I started really close, as close as 6 yards, and worked on technique - hitting the ball cleanly and finding the corner. Then I started moving back and adding things - turn-in, first-touch volley, headers off of crosses. It was pretty structured in the way I approached it.
city coaching drafted fantastic great honor pleased rich staff sure team wait
It's an honor to be drafted by the Fire. It's a great team with a lot of rich tradition. I'm just pleased to be a part of it and to have this fantastic opportunity. I wasn't sure where I would end up, but I'm especially pleased that I get to go to Chicago. It's a great city and the coaching staff is fantastic, so I can't wait to get out there and go to work.
