CHS Pics: Man U at Seattle U

Soccer royalty visited Seattle University’s Championship Field Tuesday afternoon. And Manchester United was there too. Players from the English Premier League champions and the Seattle Sounders were on hand at a special soccer skills and drills clinic for Washington State Special Olympics athletes. In addition to the drills, the kids got to ask Man U’s most famous player Wayne Rooney questions like what his favorite US city is. Las Vegas, by the way, the forward said. Meanwhile, outside the field’s fences, a growing crowd peeked through and hollered for autographs. Wednesday, Man U tangles with the Sounders in an international friendly that is expected to draw more than 45,000 65,000 to the CLink. More pictures below.

“Wednesday, Man U tangles with the Sounders in an international friendly that is expected to draw more than 45,000 to the CLink.” Add about 20,000 to that figure.
