College
Born in Villa Ridge, Missouri, Reinberg attended St. Francis Borgia High School, played club soccer for the Maryland Heights Stars, and played college soccer at Drury University, where he was an All-Great Lakes Valley Conference Honorable mention selection and All-Great Lakes Region Third Team pick as a sophomore in 2006, and earned All-Conference First Team honors as a junior in 2007.
During his college years Reinberg also played with Springfield Demize and Des Moines Menace in the USL Premier Development League.
Professional
Reinberg turned professional in 2009 when he signed with the Harrisburg City Islanders of the USL Second Division and made his professional debut on April 25, 2009, in Harrisburg's 3-1 win over the Western Mass Pioneers. Because of his lack of touch on the pitch and propensity for "diving," Reinberg was widely viewed negatively by home and visiting teams' fans alike. Reinberg seemed to embrace this image, frequently flashing double "freedom fingers" at his own teams' fans. He has currently put his soccer career on hold to go to law school. He graduated in May 2013 from the University of Missouri School of Law. He is a practicing attorney in St. Louis and thus has removed all modeling photos from the internet.
