FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – After being sent on two extended loan stints to USL side Orange County Soccer Club this year, New England Revolution rookie Mark Segbers officially returned to Foxborough on Tuesday evening.
Segbers gained valuable experience via crucial professional minutes out on the West Coast. Playing 19 games (starting 15) the midfielder/defender totaled more than 1,100 minutes with OCSC, and that time has been formative for the rookie’s career development.
“It’s a huge confidence booster, honestly,” said Segbers. “Being able to get professional minutes in any way, shape or form is definitely a nerve calmer for any rookie, so getting over 1,100 minutes under my belt is very important to me; and just trying to use that experience any way I can at this next level is the goal for me coming back.
