Welcome home, Nico

Written by supahrevs on May 12, 2009 – 3:06 pm -

The Revolution’s latest addition, Nico Colaluca, joined his new teammates at training for the first time today and we were able to grab a few pictures of the young midfielder in his new gear. Check them out after the jump …

Colaluca is a native New Englander who grew up in Coventry, R.I., and was a high school soccer standout at La Salle Academy in Providence. He also played college soccer at the University of Virginia with current Revolution teammate Chris Tierney.

Join us in welcoming Nico back to where it all began!

    Do not let the size of this kid fool you, he is very skilled . Colorado did not give him enough playing time. He will be a good asset for the Revs, as a starter or comming off the bench. And I am not just saying this because I am from Rhode Island.We also have a history of soccer talent from Rhode Island and Southeastern Mass.

    I hope he can find his way into the lineup. It’d be nice to see a fellow Rhody on the field for the Revs. It’s just a good thing he was never a Knotty Oaker!

    I am very glad to see Nico come back to Rhode Island and play for the Revs. As a former La Salle Academy alum I was fortunate enough to play with and watch Nico as a freshman. He is an unbelievable player and he is a very big asset for the Revs. I too would like to see him get into the line up and show Nichols what he truely has. good luck Nico I know you’ll make us La Salle guys and Rhode Island fans proud.
