PORTLAND, Ore. – Only two months ago, New England Revolution rookie Henry Kessler was a junior in college playing soccer at the University of Virginia.
That all changed on January 9, when Kessler was the club's first pick in the 2020 MLS SuperDraft (6th overall). Since that night, Kessler has dived in head first to his new life with the Revolution.
The 21-year-old has now spent approximately six consecutive weeks training with his Revolution teammates. He’s appeared in all four of the Revolution’s preseason matches to date, including three starts, one of which was a full 90-minute performance.
