Tim Firla: When did you start playing soccer?

Zach Croce: I started playing when I was three years old, so I have been playing since fourteen years now. My parents signed me up and I enjoyed it from day one.

TF: How did your regular season go?

ZC: I would say it was a success. I think we all have improved a lot and built some good chemistry going into States.

TF: What are you looking forward to in the remainder of your season?

ZC: I am looking forward to States because I am confident in our team and we know that we have what it takes to make a run in the tournament. For me and all the other seniors, this is our last ride so we have to make it count.

TF: What position do you play?

ZC: I mostly play winger and attacking midfielder. I have experience in many positions over my years of soccer and am willing to play anywhere I am asked to go.

TF: What is your biggest accomplishment this season?

ZC: My biggest accomplishment this year is being able to show that I can play meaningful minutes for our team. Soccer is a team sport which means everyone on the field needs to know their jobs and play hard in order to win games.
