I am admittingly very bad on the PC. I sought to see how this website ranks. A place that ranks them wrote we do not rank, due to being too localized.

Local stories accounted for 37 postings, National ones totalled 61 items while international tallied 25 such mentions.

Sunday, I get a text from a person I know who does training, no idea on their credentials, but a good player. Not sure if we were in contact since late 2023. He has a young lady looking for a women's team. I need to ask age and location, I am told she is playing at a local school, but seeks a club or something long term. I ask the level getting told D2+, whatever that means, I ask if that is NCAA, it is. I ask for her schedule and video, informed she started yesterday, and when avail, will send me her schedule and notify me, it has been out for quite sometime already.

John Diffley, now the Deputy Athletics Dir. & COO at St. John's University is a past teammate of Nuttall with both having been on the aforementioned Long Island Rough Riders team that took the national title in 1995, the year before MLS. Diffley had this to say.
"Richie is an amazing person-a great coach, teammate and friend. His record as Hofstra's coach is outstanding: championships, great teams and outstanding players. But even more than that, Richie is a great person! I've been lucky to know him as a friend, and his positive impact on so many lives is immeasurable."
