Hi Tom & all,
        Unfortunately, there are four factors strongly working
Against the likelihood of this actually being a meteorite:
1) In the photo the specimen appears to have rust marks - not
A possibility for a fresh fall.
2) There appeared to be no matrix vs fusion crusted outer portion
3) It seems most unlikely a meteorite would split in two after hitting
    A lawn covered field
4) I hear it is extremely common for every manor of thing to be
 thrown at soccer matches.
        I would love to be wrong.
        Michael
