Pretty sure it was me......1981 Christian Hricinak semi-pro, at the age of 17. I've done a lot of research and can't find anyone before me. I was born in 1963, started playing in 1969, played for six colleges and a semi-pro team at the same time indoors and out, watched the MLS disolve along with my pro career, three times in the United States. Continued to pioneer soccer in the US by playing, coaching and teaching at my own academy. Still coach and play MSSL at the age of 52.
