Best moment while at Twins:

The 2011 NCYSA State Cup. I had the pleasure of working with the 96 Lady Twins White and 97 Twins White. The girls went undefeated in group play but didn’t progress on goal difference, losing out to eventual winners CASL Elite Black, whom they tied 1-1. The boys won all five of their games, beating  CASL Chelsea in a close final 2-1, becoming U13 State Cup Champions.
