Jason Kreis - retire's to take the coach job
Soccer365
On Saturday, Kreis will become the youngest active head coach in Major League Soccer at 34 years and 127 days of age. In addition to becoming the youngest full-time coach in MLS history, eclipsing former New York Red Bulls interim coach Richie Williams' mark of 36 years and 25 days set during the latter half of the 2006 season, Kreis on Saturday will become the second-youngest to coach in a League match, as former Colorado Rapids player Roy Wegerle (32 years, 186 days) was the interim coach of record for their final game in 1996. The new role for Kreis makes the Duke University product the eleventh ex-MLS player (not including Wegerle) to take the reins of a League side, and the seventh current head coach to make the switch from the field to the sideline.
