“Coach Dooley and Team Manager Dan Palami regret the decision of Schrock, but they accept and respect his desire to pursue new challenges. They likewise express their deep gratitude for Schrock’s commitment to the Azkals in the past and his pivotal contribution to the team and raising football awareness in the country.”
