from Rivals at yahoo.com: http://highschool.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1238521 Marc Pelosi, regarded by many as the top high school boys soccer player in the United States, thought he had finished his recruiting process when he verbally committed to UCLA. Now, however, he has a much-bigger decision: Liverpool F.C. has offered him a chance to go pro and join one of the world's top organizations. Marc Pelosi can play as either a defender or an attacking midfielder. "It's a great feeling," he told topdrawersoccer.com. And a big decision for the 17-year-old from Sunnyvale, Calif. "I have been told the current Barcelona coach said that, 'If you don't go to Barcelona, the second-best place to develop is at Liverpool.' It's a great, top notch organization," he said. "Right now, I want to make sure that wherever I go I am in the right place where there is a balance between training and playing high-level matches. And I want to ensure I can continue my education." He has said he hopes to decide in the next few weeks. If he turns pro, he will join the development program of the English Premier League club. Pelosi, 6-0, 170 pounds, can play both defender and attacking midfielder with the type of skills that have made him the No. 1 recruit in the Class of 2012 by topdrawersoccer (see top 100).
