Championships are remembered for the final score. Dynasties are remembered for the people who built them.
Built by a Community tells the remarkable story of the Kirtland High School girls soccer program-from its uncertain beginnings to becoming one of Ohio's premier small-school dynasties. Through exclusive interviews with players, coaches, parents, and community members, veteran journalist Steve Hare reveals that sustained success isn't created by a single championship season. It's built one family, one teammate, one sacrifice, and one generation at a time.
More than a sports book, Built by a Community is a story about leadership, resilience, mentorship, and the lasting impact a community can have when everyone pulls in the same direction. Whether you're a soccer fan, coach, parent, athlete, or simply someone who appreciates stories of teamwork and perseverance, this is a celebration of what can happen when people invest in something bigger than themselves.
