12 San Jacinto College Soccer 2011 Former San Jac Stars Make it Big

Soccer players of any age can gain inspiration from the tales of Dane Richards, Kieron Bernard, and Francisco Calvo, former soccer stars at San Jacinto College who have taken their game to the next level. There is little doubt that they, and many of their peers, dreamed one day of making it to the big stage.

Dane Richards Prior to the 2003 season, Richards might not have known exactly where Houston was on the map, but former San Jacinto College head coach Ben Hunter knew him. Hunter, who had developed quite a knack for recruiting players from Jamaica, brought Richards to San Jacinto College that season. The rest, as they say, is history. The 2003 team, the last to play for the now retired Hunter, won 17 straight games before falling to Tyler in the Region XIV title game. Richards, displaying remarkable speed and ball handling skills, scored 20 goals that season. Playing for current head coach Dr. David Santesteban the following season, Richards scored 25 times, becoming the all-time career scorer at San Jac. Along the way, Richards guided the team to a third-place finish at the national tournament. Richards went on to lead Clemson University to the NCAA College Cup, earning second-team NSCAA All-American honors after scoring 11 goals and nine assists in 20 games as a senior. He was a Hermann Award Finalist that year, and also garnered a NSCAA All-South first team selection as well as a first-team All-ACC selection. After graduation, the drafted Richards in the second round of the 2007 amateur draft. Now, the native is living his dream and playing the sport professionally. The Red Bulls’ midfielder made his first professional start in April 2007 at Columbus and notched his first MLS point when he assisted on Clint Mathis’ goal on April 15 against FC Dallas. Richards scored his first career MLS goal on May 5, 2007, against . He was a finalist for the 2007 MLS Rookie of the Dane Richards Year, and is a member of the NJCAA Soccer Hall of Fame class of 2011. “I knew Dane could do this,” Santesteban said. “In 2004, it didn’t take me long to see what type of player he was and what he could become. It’s a credit to his work ethic. It proves that if you do things right and believe, you have a chance to do whatever you like.”

Kieron Bernard Bernard, who Santesteban recruited, followed much of the same path as Richards. He came to San Jac from Spanish Town, Jamaica, and quickly made his mark on the SJC program. A crafty defender, Bernard quickly established himself as a premier collegiate player. He captained the San Jac men’s soccer team to a second place national finish in 2008, and also played for Portmore United in the Jamaican in the 2008-09 season. Bernard turned professional on Dec. 15, 2008, when he signed with the newly established Austin Aztex in the USL First Division. He scored his first professional goal on Sept. 25, 2010 in a 4-2 win over AC St. Louis. “I’m very excited for Kieron,” said Santesteban. “He’s a tremendous player and has a bright future ahead of him as a professional player. I would expect that it won’t take too long before he’s playing in the MLS () or possibly even in England.” Kieron Bernard Bernard was a two-time NJCAA and NSCAA All-American.

Francisco Calvo Calvo quickly made his way up the professional ranks after returning to his native Costa Rica in the summer of 2011 to play for the national youth team. As luck would have it, one of Costa Rica’s senior professional players went down with an injury, and Calvo was asked by national head coach Ricardo La Volpe to play in a friendly game against Nigeria, an opportunity most young athletes only dream about. As the only non-professional player on the team, he got the opportunity of a lifetime when he was called off the bench in the 59th minute. Calvo made such an impression that he was named a reserve call-up for the Costa Rica team at the 2011 Gold Cup, and later impressed coach La Volpe to win him a call-up for the Costa Rica squad at the 2011 Copa America. Francisco was recently sign professionally to Club Sport Heredia in the Costa Rican 1st Division.
