Your team is off to a great start to the season so far. What’s been the key to your success and how do you keep it going?

Kleronomos: I think all the coaches and players get along well. Having great connections within the team has been crucial to our success. We all share motivation to have a successful season, and plan on making this Yorkville’s best season yet.

That tying goal against Oswego, have you ever had a goal like that so late in a game?

Kleronomos: I had a similar situation in my junior season in a game against Somonauk in the final minutes of the game, but never quite as late as the Oswego goal.

What goals do you have for the season, as a team and individual?

Kleronomos: I think a big goal for the team is to have a longer run in the playoffs. A goal for me that coincides with the team’s is to continue competing at a higher level.

How did you get into soccer? Have you played any other sports?

Kleronomos: My dad played soccer throughout college and started coaching me and my siblings at a young age. I played hockey growing up, but I knew that soccer was always my favorite sport.

What’s your favorite subject in school?

Kleronomos: I enjoy business-related classes the most.

What’s a restaurant your team would go to celebrate a big win, and what would you order?

Kleronomos: Buffalo Wild Wings. After every big win the team always goes out to BDUBS. My go to order is 15 chipotle bbq traditional wings and a large fry.

Do you have a favorite TV show or movie?

Kleronomos: My favorite movie of all time would have to be between “War Dogs” and “The Wolf of Wall Street.”
