Former Lincoln-Way, Chicago Magic and Indiana star Ned Grabavoy turns 25 on Tuesday. The former New Lenox resident is hands down one of the best high school players I have ever covered, a player that created excitement in the stands the minute he touched the ball.

Entering his fifth year in the MLS, the San Jose midfielder was asked this past weekend when he was in Chicago if he would change anything about his prep career (when he chose to play high school and club)?

"I look back at playing in high school and love that I got to play with some of my best friends," said the former high school and college All-America star. "I had a similar decision whether to play in college or playing in Europe. I don't regret a thing."
