COMMERCE CITY — They used to sing his name at Dick’s Sporting Good Park, now they hope to praise it. The Colorado Rapids have a new coach — at least for the time being — and it’s Conor Casey. The renowned aggressive striker who possessed a mean touch playing for Colorado hopes to breathe some life into the Rapids.
Casey rejoined the Rapids as an assistant in January of 2017 and was named interim head coach to replace Anthony Hudson on Wednesday.
Colorado is 0-7-2 this season with the fewest points (2) in Major League Soccer.
“Extremely proud,” Casey said Wednesday.
