The Mel Kiper of Soccer

By: Clint | April 3rd, 2007

has got to be From College to the Pros, “THE soccer blog focused on American soccer players moving up the ranks. We’ll keep track of the young soccer stars who are looking to make the leap to professional soccer in America and abroad.”

Today’s entry includes Colorado’s Daniel Wasson: “Wasson was the Rapids last 2006 Supplemental Draft pick and he quietly became a super-sub for the Rapids defense during the 2006 season while also helping the Rapids Reserves to the 2006 Reserve League Championship. The Colorado Springs product has showed the Rapids staff that he understands the game and can keep up with the physical side of the league. In 2007 he is going to need to show he can step in for Captain Pablo Mastroeni and Ugo Ihemelu when they go play for the US National team this summer (Yes, I know Ugo isn’t in the player pool but there is a chance, right?). Wasson has a lot of weight on his shoulders going into the 2007 season. My sources tell me he is trying to get a senior contract worked out and the team has until July to come to terms. If they don’t, he’s ready to walk away from his home team.”

A highly detailed, thoughtful, and original site. A great resource for fans of American soccer.
