Coach BIO:
I began playing soccer at the age of 4 following in the footsteps of my grandfather, Baltimore Blast Hall of Fame player Paul Crossley. I played club for Abingdon Football Club as my first club team. After moving on from AFC, I began playing for my high school team Harford Christian where I was captain for 2 years and named to Harford County’s All-County First team in 2011. I also began playing for NESC at this time under Coach Franco Frisone. Thanks to exposure I received playing with NESC, I continued my soccer career with Harford Community College for my freshman year. I began unofficially coaching at 15 with my uncle at Upper Chesapeake Soccer Club. I’ve also coached clubs within the Baltimore Bays and HFC organizations. This will be my first official season as head coach of my own team. 

I enjoy teaching the game and like to focus on the tactical aspects. I’m a firm believer in being a student of the game.
