A game changer in the backfield, senior soccer player Matt Kane’s ability has shone brightly this October and proved him to be a valuable defenseman.
“He’s solid in the back, always keeps our defense together and he’s a good captain for everyone on the field,” team captain senior Josh Konecek said.
Kane’s efforts have strengthened the team’s ability to compete, and boosted camaraderie throughout the team.
“He’s helped us win by scoring a lot of head balls,” teammate senior Ben Levine said.
Kane has developed a strong passion for soccer, while recognizing that it is, in fact, still a game.
“I like to keep it calm and simple,” Kane said, “though it’s a lifestyle in the fall for all of us.”
Kane and his teammates have stayed focus every day in practice, with a team oriented mindset. Kane says that he views practice as a great opportunity to improve.
“How you practice shows up in how you play in games, so if you work hard in practice you should play hard in the game,” Kane said.
