Ben Olsen Retires Today

At 2.30 pm today Ben Olsen will hold a press conference to announce his retirement. It will be closed for the public but DC United will stream it live on their web site www.dcunited.com.

Benny has always been one of my favorite players, the hardest working player in DC United for many years. He might not have scored many goals but he never gave up and has been the only leader for this team. On of my favorite moments is definitely when Benny scored his Hat Trick against the New York Red Bulls in 2007 at RFK. Check out the video.



I hope that DC United will keep him in the organization close to the team. I want to thank him for all the great soccer he has been giving us and wish him all the best.
