Big-time MLS newcomer

Los Angeles just signed some old English guy, but the real Major League Soccer move was when FC Dallas took Brown forward Andrew Daniels 18th overall in this weekend's draft.

Daniels didn't make too much noise against Penn in the 0-0 2OT draw at Rhodes field this year (three shots, none on goal), but tore apart Adelphi in the first round of the NCAA Tournament with a hat trick in the 4-1 win. The Bears lost in the next round against Duke, 2-0. He totaled eight goals and four assists last season, for his second-straight first team All Ivy selection.

Daniels played up front for Brown, but was attractive because of his versatillity - he played defense at a recent combine.

The Milwaukee, Wisc., native played at Marquette University High School, the same place as Penn forward Mike Klein and midfielder Kevin Unger.

The ACC owns the MLS Draft, providing each of the top 6 picks. In all it accounted for 14 of the 52 total picks - top selection Maurice Edu was a Terp, and Virginia, Wake Forest and North Carolina all had three or more players picked.

The only pick Penn faced was Daniels. The Quakers would have gone up against #35 overall Nick LaBrocca of Rutgers, but that matchup was cancelled.
