Another player has been added to the Lobos in the Pros list.
Forward Niko Hansen was selected as the ninth overall pick in the first round of the 2017 MLS SuperDraft on Friday afternoon.
He was picked up by Columbus Crew SC, but had already signed an early guaranteed MLS contract, a type of contract signed by only 10 college seniors.
After his selection, Hansen was asked by Alex Stec, a Columbus Crew SC brand journalist, what his reaction had been when he first heard his name called.
“I couldn’t believe it at first,” said a teary-eyed Hansen.
