[edit] High School Career
Dario played his high school games for Roy C. Ketcham High School, Wappingers Falls, NY under the direction of coach Behnke. Another player making a career after being coached by Behnke was goalkeeper, Bo Oshonyi.
[edit] Collegiate career
Brose played college soccer for North Carolina State and was named All-American in 1990. That year, the Wolfpack made it to the Final Four. Brose graduated in 1991 with two teammates, Roy Lassiter and Henry Gutierrez, who also had successful professional careers. Another teammate on the Wolfpack, Scott Schweitzer, is now Brose's coach on the RailHawks.
[edit] Time in Europe
After graduation, Brose moved to Europe. There he played with Stade Saint-Brieuc in France, and FC Saarbrücken in Germany. He established himself as a solid midfielder during his time in Germany.
[edit] San Jose Clash
Brose returned to the United States in 1999 to join the San Jose Clash of the Major League Soccer (MLS). He quickly established himself as a mainstay in the midfield. His outstanding play during the 2000 season led to his selection to play in the All Star Game. On a side note, this was also the year the Clash changed their name to the Earthquakes. He played his last season in 2001, the year the San Jose Earthquakes won their first championship. He played only one game that year.
[edit] National team
Brose played for the U.S. U-18, U-20, U-23 and Senior men's teams. This included the U.S. team at the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona and the 1989 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Saudi Arabia.
Brose earned four caps for the U.S. national team. He scored one goal during his time with the national team.
[edit] Coaching
After his initial retirement from active playing, Brose worked as a staff coach for the Silicon Valley Football Club; head coach of the Mid-Michigan Bucks of the PDL; and the Director of Youth Development and U12 girls team of the Triangle Futbol Club.
[edit] Return to playing
In 2007, Brose signed with the Carolina RailHawks of the USL-1. He played one game, then retired permanently.
