Joe Greenspan to continue service in U.S. Navy
Colorado Rapids defender Joe Greenspan will begin the 2016 MLS season in San Diego as part of his service in the U.S. Navy.
"We wish Joe well as he continues his naval commitments," said Paul Bravo, VP of Soccer Operations and Technical Director. "We drafted Joe in full knowledge of his service to his country and we have the utmost respect for that obligation.
"In many ways, we feel we were fortunate to have Joe as much as we did last season and he is a young talent that we will continue to develop. We'd like to thank the Navy for their assistance throughout this process and we'll continue to work closely with them for the benefit of both parties."
