After only a short period of time in America, I have made friends that will last me a life time and soccer is so big in America that it makes the college experience amazing. Best memory: I have a few so winning the conference and winning the conference tournament was really special and being named on the All-Region team and all conference first team was good too.

Patrick Nielsen

Michigan State University
The setup over here exceeded my wildest fantasies. we have more fans than any Danish Division 1 team, better facilites than the Superliga clubs and then it's something else flying to Miami for an away game rather than driving a bus to Thisted in Denmark.

Kristoffer Tollefsen

University of Kentucky
The best thing about being a student-athlete in the US is that you develop as an athlete, but also maybe more importantly as a human. These are most likely the best four years of your life – a fantastic time where you experience a lot, learn a lot, and have a really good time!
