Seattle Sounders FC announced on Wednesday that Academy Director of Coaching Chris Little will replace Sounders FC 2’s outgoing Head Coach John Hutchinson, who departed for his native Australia.
Little, who was named the 2017-18 USSDA Western Conference Coach of the Year, is ready to seize this opportunity as he ushers S2 into a new era.
“I’m really excited, and I’m very thankful to the club for the opportunity,” said Little. “I’m ready to build upon all the good work that Hutch and [S2 Assistant Coach] Wade [Webber] did last year in terms of Academy integration and providing a pathway for younger players.
