Pitter was selected #13 of the 2nd round/#33 overall. Congratulations to him as well.

The coaches have just voted the Union #1 in the Big East preseason poll.

Congrats to all. This league does a decent job of getting players into MLS, I know that MU has had 4 players selected in the draft or in MLS in the last 5 years. It's really great that MLS has done so well recently so that our home-grown talent has a place to ply their trade and make money.

Creighton goalie Connor Sparrow gets picked 65th overall in the 4th round to Real Salt Lake.

Just a note, Creighton is the only NCAA team to have a player taken in every MLS draft since the league founded.
