Whitecaps sign top draft pick Seiler

Former Georgetown University centre back was Vancouver’s 16th overall selection in last month’s MLS SuperDraft.

Vancouver Whitecaps FC added to their defensive ranks on Monday by penning their top SuperDraft pick Cole Seiler to an MLS contract.

The former Georgetown University centre back, who was Vancouver’s 16th overall selection in last month’s SuperDraft, has impressed head coach Carl Robinson during the early stages of preseason.

"We've had our eyes on Cole for a while now and he's shown in training camp how he can fit right in with our club," Robinson said in a club statement.
