RICHARD MULROONEY - CAMP DIRECTOR
Richard has
proved himself to be one of the best midfielders in the country. As
well as playing with the San Jose Earthquakes and FC Dallas he has spent time playing and
training with the US National team.
Now playing
his first year in Dallas, Richard was brought in for his leadership
and productivity for the center of the park. Although he got off to
a fast start this season with a season high 2 goals, he tore his ACL
seven games in and spent the rest of the season rehabbing and
recovering for the 2006 season.
A graduate of
Creighton University he was drafted by the Clash in 1999 and
continued with the team when they changed their name to the
Earthquakes solidifying his position in midfield with his style of
play. With over 132 games he holds the Earthquakes record for most
games played surpassing John Doyle's record.

his softer side with his endless community outreach,
whether it is reading to kids in schools, signing
autographs or coaching young people in the sport he
loves, he is always there to give his time.
