"I had the benefit of playing for Coach Rhein for several years. He is the best soccer coach Ripon Men’s program has ever had and he truly cares about the program and his players. Tactically he knows his stuff and continues to study the game. He has also built a positive culture in which the players respected each other like a family. Coach Rhein developed me into the person I am today and I wouldn’t be where I’m at without his guidance. "

"Coach Rhein is the ultimate players coach. He has created a culture at Ripon college and is always striving for excellence. Winning COACH OF THE YEAR for the Midwest conference only motivated him more. He is always looking to prepare the youth for challenges in life they will face after college soccer. "

"His dedication to the game and to us, his players, is seriously inspiring. You can tell he lives and breathes soccer, and that passion rubs off on everyone around him. Whether it's a training session or a nail-biting match, you can bet Marco's there, giving it his all and pushing us to be our best."
