Seven months after winning MLS Cup, former Impact midfielder Harry Shipp has decided to hang up his cleats at the ridiculously early age of 28, and pursue an MBA at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management.
Shipp was an unused sub for Seattle Sounders in last year’s MLS Cup final victory over Toronto FC and played 30 times (23 starts) in all competitions for Montreal Impact. He scored twice, each in regular season games, with the goals coming 8 days apart in a 1-1 draw away to Real Salt Lake, followed by a Stade Saputo goal in a 1-3 defeat to NYCFC.
