Talking with Jordan Schweitzer, Seattle's latest Homegrown Player

Everett native is the 6th HGP in the club's history

Former Seattle Sounders academy player Jordan Schweitzer officially signed a Homegrown Player contract with the club on Thursday after opting out of the MLS SuperDraft. Schweitzer played four seasons at the University of Denver after playing his high school soccer in Everett and spent three years in the Sounders academy. We spoke with Schweitzer about what it's like coming back to Seattle, the players he strives to emulate, and of course...Jordan Morris.

How does it feel to come back to Seattle to play for the team you grew up watching?
