Parent of Justin A. ’22

Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for Justin. Your advice and networking with all the coaches was great. Being a well known head coach yourself, really was instrumental in helping Justin find the best fit college. You know what coaches are looking for, you knew by watching Justin what type of program he would best fit in with. Thank you for reaching out to individual coaches and speaking on behalf of Justin. You also taught him how to reach out to coaches himself and communicate, he did really gain confidence in talking with adults this way. We appreciated everything about this process, because it can be stressful and overwhelming but having you alleviated a lot of that stress. Thank you!

I really liked how you made it feel personal and really wanted what was best (and fit) for me. There was a lot of useful information that was given and the zoom calls were very helpful! Without you, I would have never found my college!
Testimonials

Parents of Jack K. ’25

I would highly recommend working with Dan. He was and invaluable part of our process and resource from beginning to end. From both a parent and player perspective, he helped navigate this competitive and involved process with so much professionalism and knowledge. He helps with every step in this process, always makes himself available to you when you have questions, provides a great wealth of information/communication and puts together amazing highlight videos. As a parent, I especially liked that my son could take ownership of this process, develop a relationship with Dan and connect with him directly to get specific advice and/or information in any given situation. I truly believe he cares and will continue to stay in touch and follow my son’s soccer career. By far, one of the best decisions we made in this entire process was working with Dan.

Makenzie T. ’25

Working with you made all the difference for Makenzie and her ability to connect with schools that aligned with what she was looking for and her desire to play soccer. Heading into her senior year, we were overwhelmed with where to begin and we appreciate that her soccer coach referred us to you. You listened to what her priorities were for school size, coaching philosophy and other important factors. Connecting us with multiple options and continuing to refine the process along the way worked well and helped her find exactly what she wanted. We know this wouldn’t have been possible had it not been for partnering with you.

Your services were great. You helped me create my highlight reel. And you connected me with a coach very quickly. Because of the coach’s trust in your ability to recommend quality players, he took a chance on me. Thank you for that. This connection was very valuable for me.

Testimonials

Parents of Brock R. ’25

We contacted Dan when our son was a freshman in HS and he and Top Student Athlete were an invaluable resource for our family as we navigated the college recruiting world the past 4 years. Dan provided instruction on what to expect at showcase events and what type of information to communicate to coaches in attendance. As our son narrowed his choices, he would visit with Dan to weigh the pros and cons of each institution. With Dan’s guidance, our son found the perfect fit.

Testimonials

Gabe F. ’25

Early in the process Dan helped me realize what level of soccer I may fit best into. He also helped me understand the changes happening in college soccer and the best pathway for me as a player and as a student. It was really nice having someone I was comfortable with that I could ask his thoughts about all the schools that were reaching out and where to focus our time and effort. Coaches at all levels know and respect Dan which put me in a good position to get noticed. And he is very good with video editing and guides you through the online portals and how to communicate with college coaches. He was quick to respond to my texts and was always clear with his opinion. My recruitment process was significantly better because we worked with Dan.
