With the No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 MLS SuperDraft, the Galaxy have selected Stanford center back Tomas Hilliard-Arce.
A three-time NCAA Champion described as a warrior, the two-time All-American has completely dominated the college game and is widely considered the most MLS ready player at the draft. The lumbering center back should be able to jump into the LA Galaxy squad and compete for a starting position.
He’s also a character guy, as you can see in the below clip. Apparently Hilliard-Arce is a valuable asset in the locker room, the kind of ultra-competitive motivational machine that makes a team better.
