Off the field, the Varsity soccer team continues to get the support it needs to replenish after fighting through each game. One super-fan, Anne Krumpos, mother of junior Bart Krumpos, succeeds in making sure the Sequoits’ stomachs are filled with delicious homemade baked goods and meals. Krumpos has been a passionate team mom for the Sequoits since 2006. Krumpos provides food and beverages for the Varsity soccer team after long away games and tournaments. The tasteful food drives the soccer boys crazy as they beg for seconds after devouring Krumpos’ homemade baked goods or nutritious meals.

“I don’t do it for the accolades, I do it because I like to.,” Krumpos said. “There are only three of us at home, so if it’s something that the boys appreciate, great.”

Krumpos is not in it for the reward. She volunteers her time and money to provide for over 20 boys with huge appetites. A tasty homemade meal, that takes Krumpos a few hours to make, can go a long way as the food has a tremendous impact in the eyes of the players.

“We all love and appreciate Bart’s moms’ food,” junior Gabriel Tijerina said. “It’s always so delicious. Plus, it’s great to have a chance to get the nutrition we need to prepare for our next game or practice. We all have to keep our appetite in check and Mrs. Krumpos helps us achieve that.”

The favorable meals made by Krumpos can range from baked breads to full dinners. Various forms of apple, banana, chocolate and even pizza bread have been gulped down on the back of the soccer bus. The warm food rapidly gets passed down the bus aisle as each player begs for seconds. The team devours the mouthwatering meals, but finds a way to savor each delicious bite.

“Mrs. Krumpos’ bread is bomb,” senior Zachary Espitia said.  “I’ve got to say, my favorite was her rice mix. All of the food tastes so good but the rice mix filled me up. I couldn’t imagine a long bus ride home without that rice.”

Krumpos is a very caring parent, and if insuring her son will eat means feeding the whole bus, she is more than willing to do so especially when her service is much appreciated and the soccer boys are more than thankful.
