“I am thrilled to be returning to Northeastern PA to join Back Mountain SC for their inaugural UWS2 season. Thank you to the team owners for putting their trust in me and naming me the new Torrent Head Coach. I am fortunate enough to have experienced firsthand the amount of time and commitment that Back Mountain SC has spent creating opportunities for players in the NEPA area. I would also like to thank WashU for allowing me the time to take on this opportunity. I’m looking forward to having the chance to continue to grow the soccer community and provide our players with a high level experience.”
