Tar Heels, Columbus Crew meet Sunday in Kirk Urso Memorial Match

Posted Feb 22, 2013
When Kirk Urso died at the age 22 last August, the sense of shock was most acute at two places. First was the UNC Men’s Soccer program, where Urso appeared in 90 matches from 2008-11—a school record—and captained the 2011 NCAA College Cup champion. The other was the Columbus Crew, the Major League Soccer club that drafted Urso in January 2012. (Independent Weekly)
