With Austin Berry, Lucky Mkosana, and Hunter Jumper, Chicago Fire add depth and fill needs at 2012 MLS Draft
The Chicago Fire went into the 2012 SuperDraft looking for the best available talent over filling a specific need. It looks like they got both.
With the 9th overall selection, the club selected Austin Berry, a 6'2" central defender from Louisville. A former Chicago Fire PDL member, Berry is one of the oldest players in the draft at 23 years old and his maturity showed throughout the day.
