Athleticism just seems to run in some families, and so it does for Michelle McCarthy Restovich and her daughters! On this episode of Soccer Mom Sunday, host Jennifer Siess from Mine To Define catches up her former opponent and teammate to chat about being an athlete in the earlier days, then becoming the greatest fan of your kids. No stranger to high-level play herself, Michelle had great times on the pitch in The Beautiful Game, winning national championships with her JB Marine club team, then the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Most recently, she’s been inducted into the St. Louis Soccer Hall of Fame. Since apples don’t fall far from the tree, it’s no surprise that her daughters are all achieving greatness in their respective sports. Listen in for stories and perspectives from Michelle and her daughters Annie, Kate, Grace, and Georgia.

Today I had a one on one with Tony Doellefeld. From local club, to SLU high, a D1 stop at Tulsa before a 3 year run at Belmont, all followed by a year in Spain to play pro, Tony now owns and operates Prospect 2 Player. His services focus on connecting High School age players to one of 1200 universities and their 12K scholarships in the College Soccer Marketplace. He breaks down the evaluation process and points out the dream school might not be the first stop. Tremendous info and insight today…

Let’s Go!

Today’s episode has a brain trust of club soccer like no other. We talked about the massive merger slash three way marriage that combined the historic Busch Soccer Club, Scott Gallagher, and Metro United. The end result has grown to over 4300 players, pumped out countless college and pro players, and is now called St Louis Scott Gallagher. From the why, to the players, to the future, we cover a lot. Enjoy a little past present and future of STL club soccer!
