I met Enrique back in the 1980's when a few foreigners and a couple of Americans would kick a soccer ball around. In the early 90's Enrique was part of the core group that founded a Carlisle adult soccer team, Carlisle Nova, that still flourishes today. Enrique had a passion for everything, but especially soccer. He was always positive and encouraging when I was working with the youth soccer program in Carlisle.
