His Washington profile says he was born in Hollister, California. But everything else (including Washington) lists his hometown as Littleton, Colorado.
Yeah, that is strange. His bio on the Rapids site says he was born in Littleton, and played high school soccer at the infamous Columbine High School. Maybe he was actually born in Hollister but moved fairly early in his life to Littleton? Just a guess.
I thought I remembered him playing forward. I looked up some of his background found this interesting. www.coloradorapids.com/gamereports/2000/gr_082600.asp www.coloradorapids.com/gamereports/2000/gr_083000.asp I remeber that bicylce against Meola it was awsome I can't find the link to it. He also led the nation in assist/game his junior year at UW.
Well, born in Hollister or not, he clearly isn't familiar with the bay area. (Earthquakes Notebook): What do you know about the city of San Jose? Wes Hart: I don't know much about it. I have played there a number of times, but I am not too familiar with the city. I am looking forward to getting out there. Everyone tells me it is expensive so that will be a little shock for me. Also seems like he's a Mullan type of player in that he can and has played forward, midfield, and right back.
Oooooooh, thats eerie. Maybe we can nickname him Trenchcoat. Or if he leads the defense we can call them the Trenchcoat Mafia. I know, bad taste.
