Career
Schmid attended Christian Brothers High School in California where he was an ADIDAS high school All American. He then attended St. John's University in New York where he played soccer from 2001 to 2005. He lost most of the 2003 season to a foot injury which led him to coming back in 2005 for a fifth season with the Redmen.[1] In January 2006, the Houston Dynamo picked Schmid in the third round (32nd overall) in the 2006 MLS SuperDraft. He never played for the Dynamo first team. Later in 2006, Schmid played for the New York Red Bulls reserve team. On March 27, 2007, he signed with Seattle Sounders of the USL First Division where he played eighteen games in his first season.
