As a freshman, Dean was on the Boerne High SchoolDrum Line, Division One Regional Marching Band that went to UIL State Competition.
Dean also is a phenomenal all-around athlete, beyond soccer. In 2007 as a high school freshman at the age of 15, he competed in the United States Navy Seal Fitness Challenge. He easily won his age bracket and finished a narrow second overall, to an 18-year old competitor.
Clearly, Dean is on the right path and Boerne Soccer Club is proud to have him as a member. Congratulations Dean!!!!
