Less than a year after his dismissal from the Colorado Rapids, Anthony Hudson has been selected to take over U.S. Soccer’s Under-20 team, a source has confirmed.
Hudson replaces Tab Ramos, who was hired this offseason to manage the Houston Dynamo. Ramos was a candidate to replace Hudson in Colorado this summer, but the Rapids ultimately decided to hire Robin Fraser.
Hudson has national team experience, having coached the Bahrain and New Zealand U-23s and senior teams prior to coming to Denver.
The Rapids immediately improved following Hudson’s firing last May, going from winless to just outside the playoffs.
