[CALIFORNIA MEN] Replacing five seniors who went in the MLS SuperDraft and junior goalie David Bingham, who went to theSan Jose Earthquakes in a lottery, is a daunting task for 2010 NCAA Division I quarterfinalist California, but Golden Bears coach Kevin Grimes has landed a deeprecruiting class, led by midfielder Connor Hallisey, who recently returned from a trip to Israel with the U.S. under-18 national team.
Like Hallisey, Casiple has also trained with the U.S. U-18s and plays for the California DevelopmentAcademy.
Three of the newcomers play for the De Anza Force, and the other three (Jalali, Rawji and Sekine) play for the Irvine Strikers.
