Juan Arbelaez dreamed of being a professional soccer player while watching his father, a former pro, play the game back home in Pereira, Columbia. That dream has followed him through his family’s move to Georgia just before high school, his time as a star on a West Hall High team that reached the finals, and his collegiate soccer career. Now it’s a reality.
