Toronto FC takes Edu in MLS Draft


Canadian Press

1/12/2007 12:25:27 PM

INDIANAPOLIS (CP) - Toronto FC chose University of Maryland midfielder Maurice Edu with the first pick of the MLS SuperDraft on Friday.

The draft came in the wake of the blockbuster news that David Beckham is coming to MLS and the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Edu is a 20-year-old from California who started 55 games in three seasons with the Terrapins. A defensive midfielder by trade, he can also move up into attack and scored four winning goals last season. Edu had 10 goals and 11 assists in his collegiate career.

Edu led the Terps to the 2005 NCAA title. Maryland was 52-15-5 during his tenure.

Toronto went into the draft with 12 players on its books, including Canadians Greg Sutton, Adam Braz, Chris Pozniak, Marco Reda and Jim Brennan.



Toronto kicks off the regular season April 7 against Chivas USA in Carson, Calif.

Its home opener is April 28 against the Kansas City Wizards.

The Chicago Fire picked Virgina defender Bakary Soumare second, trading with the Columbus Crew to move up from the eighth position. Columbus picked up a player to be named later.
