Soccer Seminarian Chase Interview

Chase is a new friend. Pray for vocations to the Religious Life and Priesthood. God is good and it was fun to be able to meet this man who as finished the first two years of philosophy and is not in his first year of theology.

New goal: Pro soccer player to study for priesthood here
By Tom Dermody

BLOOMINGTON -- Professional soccer player Chase Hilgenbrinck is changing fields to pursue greater goals.
The Bloomington native on Monday announced his retirement from the New England Revolution team of Major League Soccer to begin studies for the priesthood as a seminarian of the Diocese of Peoria.

Chase retired from soccer on July 14, 2008 to enter Mount St. Mary's Seminary in Emmitsburg, Maryland in hopes of becoming a Catholic priest. He is currently in his first year as a seminarian at "The Mount," representing his home Diocese of Peoria, Illinois.
