Union Add Lurie, Missimo in Superdraft Rounds 3 and 4

Centerback depth? Another option at forward? The Union drafted some potentially good talent even late in the draft this year.

Depth isn't something we are acclimated to yet with the Union, but given the new regime's picks in rounds 3 and 4 of the Superdraft, we might have to warm up to the idea.

Enter Mitchell Lurie who became the Union's third round (44th pick) in the Superdraft today. Joining the Union by way of Rutgers University, Lurie put up some impressive numbers as the go to choice at center back for the Scarlet Knights, with six assists in 21 starts.
