Hap Marre
Harry "Hap" Marre was an early twentieth-century American soccer inside left who spent his entire professional career in the St. Louis Soccer League.
Marre, a native of St. Louis, Missouri and brother of National Soccer Hall of Fame member John Marre, gained his greatest fame as a member of Ben Millers. Most details regarding his career are obscure, but he is listed on the Ben Miller roster as early as 1916.[1] In 1917, he was the captain of Ben Millers. In 1918, he joined the United States Navy during World War I, playing for the Navy's soccer team.[2] After the war, he returned to Ben Millers going to the 1920 National Challenge Cup final with them. In that game, he scored a goal in the Ben Millers’ 2–1 victory over Fore River.
Marre was inducted into the St. Louis Soccer Hall of Fame in 1973.[3]
