College

Dombrowski attended the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee where he played on the men's soccer team. He was a two time all-Horizon League selection and a second team All-American. [1]

Professional

In January 2003, the Chicago Fire of Major League Soccer selected Dombrowski in the fifth round (44 overall) of the 2003 MLS SuperDraft. He was also drafted by the Milwaukee Wave United of the USL A-League. When the Fire did not sign him, Dombrowski joined Milwaukee for the 2003 and 2004 seasons. In December 2002, Dombrowski had also been drafted by the Milwaukee Wave of Major Indoor Soccer League in the first round (8th overall) in the 2002 MISL Amateur Draft. [2] He did not sign with the Wave, but played outdoor for two seasons. On February 10, 2005, he finally joined the Wave for the last half of the 2004–2005 indoor season. He played through the 2006–2007 season in Milwaukee, winning the 2005 MISL Championship. After the Wave United withdrew from the A-League following the 2004 season, Dombrowski moved to the Minnesota Thunder for the 2005 and 2006 seasons. In 2005 he led the Thunder to the semi-finals of the 2005 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup where he scored a goal in a loss to the eventual champion Los Angeles Galaxy. In 2007, he signed with the expansion Carolina RailHawks.
