U.S. Soccer names former Rapids boss Hudson as new U-20 coach

Following Tab Ramos' departure, a former MLS coach will take charge of the American youth team

U.S. Soccer announced on Wednesday that former Colorado Rapids boss Anthony Hudson has been hired as the new U.S. U-20 men's national team coach.

Hudson takes over the U-20 team following a difficult stint in MLS, as his Rapids amassed just an 8-26-9 record before the coach was dismissed by the club this past May after less than two seasons with the club.

Prior to his coaching tenure in the U.S., Hudson took charge of the New Zealand and Bahrain national teams, reaching the inter-confederation playoffs for the 2018 World Cup with the former before falling to Peru, as well as Tottenham's reserve side and English Conference Premier club Newport County.
