Captain Kangaroo Posted February 5, 2005 Report Posted February 5, 2005 Rhyne is Real Salt Lake's top pick Associated Press SALT LAKE CITY -- Real Salt Lake added former Clemson midfielder Steven Rhyne with the first overall pick in the Major League Soccer supplemental draft Friday. The expansion club also added defenders Michael Lookingland and Cameron Knowles and goalkeeper Noah Palmer with later picks in the draft. "We were looking for two defenders, a reserve goalkeeper and an outside midfielder, and we found all four," general manager Steve Pastorino said. Rhyne had 32 goals and 23 assists in four years at Clemson and can play either outside midfielder position. Lookingland got RSL's attention at a tryout last month and was taken with the No. 13 pick. Palmer started four years at Maryland and posted 34 shutouts. Knowles helped New Zealand to the Under-17 FIFA World Championship in 1999 and started 72 of 74 games playing for the University of Akron. Quote
