Head Coach at Santa Ana High

Weber contributed three goals and two assists in the postseason as San Clemente reached the SoCal Division I Regional championship game in his only year of high school soccer. The South Coast League MVP, Weber spent his junior year of high school in residency with the U.S. Soccer Under-17 Men’s National Team in Bradenton, Fla.
