CATCH UP WITH TREYSEN : 2011 BOYS ODP NATIONAL TEAM SELECTION
On the Regional Event in Florida: This was my first opportunity playing at this high of a level and gave me the opportunity to be seen by MLS NEXT coaches. I was scouted to go play for Shattuck St. Mary’s in Minneapolis and have accepted the offer. I would not have this opportunity if it hadn’t been for the ODP path that led me here.
If you could give a piece of advice to other players, what would that be? Not to give up and not to worry about what other players think. Don’t compare yourself to other kids that are playing at a higher level. It might not be enough to just attend practice. I have spent many hours attending more than just my team trainings and practicing outside of scheduled trainings.
