 | Andrew Rohacek: I was born and raised in Harrisburg, PA. I began playing soccer at the age of 5. I have been playing soccer everyday since then! I found a love for the game at a young age when Ben Olsen, Coach of DC United, who is a good friend of my older sister first showed me a few tricks with ball in the front yard. I love sharing my knowledge of the game with the LDC Kids and am really looking forward to this upcoming year!!! Coaching also allows me to spend quality time with my family and my daughter Emma who I also coach.
