PHILADELPHIA – The LA Galaxy bolstered their midfield by drafting Stanford midfielder Drew Skundrich with the 40th overall selection in the second round of the 2018 MLS SuperDraft.
Skundrich, 22, was not only the second selection of the draft but also their second pick from Stanford University. A force in the center of the park, Skundrich was an integral piece of the Cardinal’s three-straight College Cup championship teams, making 82 appearances in four seasons in Palo Alto.
“I’m a workhorse in the middle of the field. I can play center midfield and I can play outside back," he told LA Galaxy Insider.
