Andy Riemer

What Scouts Say: "Can play outside mid on either side ... Hard-working and lots of energy. Insatiable attitude for the game ... Good feet and good pace ... Strong on the ball ... Super unorthodox: Not polished in possession and can lose the ball, but works to get it back ... Not the best player on the team, but the heartbeat for Georgetown ... He's a winner and finds a way to get it done ... Under the radar even going into college ... Played up top for Georgetown until phenom Brandon Allen got there and then Riemer moved out wide which may have worked better for him because Riemer won't be a forward in MLS ... He can be a spark out of midfield ... Great kid on and off the field ... Played holding midfielder for the Orange County Blue Star in PDL ... Trained in Belgium last spring and also trained with the LA Galaxy and Seattle Sounders ... He's the kind of kid that surprises you."
