When he was hired earlier this year to resurrect the Miami Dade College men\u2019s soccer program, which had been on hiatus for nearly 35 years, head coach <\/span>Giuseppe DePalo <\/span><\/a><\/span>immediately went to work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Six months later, DePalo has constructed a team with international flair. The Sharks lineup features players from Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, France, Haiti, Italy, Nigeria and the United Kingdom as they prepare to start their season versus <\/span>back-to-back national champion Monroe College<\/span><\/a><\/span> at Kendall Campus on Aug. 22 at 7 p.m.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe team is very diverse and we have many international kids,\u201d said midfielder Javier Prieto. \u201cAdjusting to those cultures has been fun, and the chemistry the team has built in these past weeks has been wonderful.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Strikers include Diego Luengo, Alejandro Cumplido and Wisdom Ishaya, who are all freshmen.<\/span><\/p>\n

The midfielders are Gabriel Obletter, Joao Pedro Dos Santos Oliveira, John Bentley Fortune, Benicio Aronow, Eduardo Cornejo, Sean Bayard, Kyle Reid and Prieto.<\/span><\/p>\n

Defenders include Agustin Sinelli, Jeremy Levivier, Agustin Bezara, Facundo Ochoa, Beau Beresford, Cheick Dounkasse, Jesus Colazo, Guilherme Soares Martins, Deberson Louis Jean and Reginald Eldime.<\/span><\/p>\n

The last line of defense will be sophomore goalkeepers Angel Fernandez and Jaime Guerrero, and freshmen Will Blease and Samuel Cavo.<\/span><\/p>\n

With only three sophomores on the team, the freshmen-laden squad provides ample room for growth as they carve out an identity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe would like them to play, attack and defend,\u201d DePalo said. \u201cAlso figuring out what formation best suits the players, along with getting them to know each other and know us.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The team has already faced some early challenges. DePalo said some of their equipment has not come yet. And their <\/span>$5 million on-campus soccer stadium<\/span><\/a><\/span>, which was originally slated to be ready this fall, has encountered delays.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

DePalo believes the space will not be ready until the end of the season.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had to train and play on the side fields,\u201d DePalo said. \u201cIt has been challenging in terms of coordinating with the women\u2019s program and four teams training out there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

For now, the team will utilize that space, which features full-size soccer fields, to play their home games.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard with a new program because we don\u2019t have a basis or pre-existing history to go off of,\u201d DePalo said. \u201cIt\u2019s going to take time to get them to gel and understand how we want them to collaborate, but the plan is to compete and try to be among the better teams in the league, region and eventually the country.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
