10 things about UNC alum, new US men's soccer coach Gregg Berhalter

Posted Dec 4, 2018
Gregg Berhalter's playing career didn't get started in Major League Soccer. After his junior year at the University of North Carolina in 1994 there was no Major League Soccer (league launched two years later). So he went to Europe, playing in the Netherlands, England and Germany. After a well-traveled 15-year European career, Berhalter signed with the LA Galaxy in 2009. (MLS Soccer)
