Commissioner KO (ret.) & first time not on the LU soccer field since 2011 season opening day. Rather in-route to Florida to cheer on his son Nico at the USA men’s gymnastics National Championship Tournament. But still going in Upward Sports style. Go Commissioner Adrian with blessings and prayers for your 1st LU soccer day! Knowing this ministry is in good hands.
