The Florida State soccer team finished up spring practice and all signs point to a promising fall season.

"I thought overall our kids did quite well. Some of the biggest investors we have are Jessica Price and Tiffany McCarty are back playing."

Both missed all of last season due to injury but were back rehabbing in the spring. Krikorian says that Price is 75 to 80 percent back with McCarty 95 percent back to full health."

Krikorian adds, "When August starts, baring any unforeseen negative situations this summer we'll get two pretty good kids back."

Even spring practice at FSU is done, his players are not. Many of them will head around the country and some the world to play on some of the top traveling teams.

"That experience is invaluable. They're going to go in and play with some of the best kids in the country and training with outstanding coaches and environment and I think that nothing but positive things will come of it."

His schedule won't let up either with is girls scattered across the country. The first group in Project 4.0 will graduate in the coming weeks.

"We've been working with these kids now for 34 weeks or something like that and this past weekend I had a chance to go out and watch them actually in game competition in Thomasville and many of them were playing and the development and the strides that they have made in their play are just fantastic."
