MLS SuperDraft: San Jose Earthquakes trade first-round pick for allocation money
""We feel good about the SuperDraft," said Earthquakes coach Bruce Arena. "We were able to acquire some allocation money and fill a void in our backline. The selection of Jack Jasinski in the second round gives us depth in our outside back position and we believe he will be a good fit in our team.""
"Markovic, a 6-foot-4 native of Quebec, helped the Wolfpack lead the nation with 15 shutouts; they yielded just 13 goals all season."
"The San Jose Earthquakes acquired $150,000 in General Allocation Money by trading their first-round pick in the MLS SuperDraft to the Houston Dynamo, who used the 11th overall pick to select University of Portland forward Joe Highfield."
