Palace Player News

BCPB has confirmed the signing of goalkeeper Chase Harrison. Harrison, 25, was a 2006 draft pick for Real Salt Lake. Harrison never saw action for RSL, but has experience with Rochester and Portland. Harrison spent last season with Harrisburg (USL 2) where he registered 8 shutouts in 16 games. He led USL 2 in shutouts and GAA (0.812).

Elsewhere, I'm told by a source...
Goalkeeper Brian Rowland, starting keeper for practically the club's entire history, has been selected for a coaching position at the University of Maryland College Park. Congratulations to Brian. This is a dream job for any soccer player and we wish him the best of luck.

Goalkeeper Will Chiles is currently the goalkeeping coach at Towson and may not be back with the club.

Will Palace Baltimore fans see former US U-17 National Team midfielder Korey Veeder this season? Veeder, 18, has been expected to join Crystal Palace UK before heading to Portugal for two years for eligibility purposes. Will the European club fighting financial issues derail this plan? I'm told the plan is still on and Veeder will head over to CPUK shortly.

How many players will be back from last season? I'm told about 10. Who will they be? We'll have to stay tuned.

Team workouts start next week.
