Crew SC players react to learning the team is nearly saved

It was a brisk October morning at Columbus Crew SC’s training facility in Obetz on Saturday. Head coach Gregg Berhalter and his staff were bundled up and observing a spirited training session from the Black & Gold as the team looks to continue its push to the playoffs.

It was 85 degrees in the capital city just a week ago, but as the weather changed so did the fortunes of Crew SC. For 361 days, it seemed quite likely that the Black & Gold would relocate to Austin, Texas. Players, coaches and staff members waited patiently to find out if they might have a job or where it might be for the 2019 Major League Soccer season.
