Nowak asks Josh Gros to join Philadelphia Union’s staff

Peter Nowak head coach of the Philadelphia Union has asked Josh Gros to join his coaching team. "I hadn't talked to him for a few months, but he called me out of the blue to offer me the position," Gros said. "Obviously, I didn't hesitate to take it."

"The whole concept for me behind this relationship is that Josh was always the one guy you could rely on and really trust to get job done no matter the position you put him in," Nowak, hired May 28 as the Union's first head coach, told the Philadelphia Daily News earlier this week.
