After going a different direction in ‘14 SuperDraft, United finally get their man in Patrick Mullins
Mullins, a former Maryland Terrapin, finally joins up with the Black-and-Red after being on their radar for several years
On the heels of a historically bad 2013 MLS campaign, D.C. United went into the 2014 SuperDraft looking to move on, and more importantly to improve. Holding on to the number one pick in that draft, United had already added the services of Fabian Espindola, Eddie Johnson, Sean Franklin, and Bobby Boswell to their ranks. But to top it off, it seemed like the obvious choice for United would be to select Patrick Mullins from the University of Maryland, the two time M.A.C. Hermann Trophy winner, the award given out to the best player in college soccer.
