Chris Cloutier’s Magical Run From NCAA Champion To MLL Rookie Of The Year

Posted Oct 11, 2018
Following graduation, Chris Cloutier went home for three days then traveled to Denver for a quick evaluation while practicing with the team. It was the type of evaluation that was a make or break moment. If the coaches liked him, they would play him. If not, he would be on the back burner. For Cloutier, there was a sense of right-place, right-time in his arrival in Denver. (GoHeels.com)
