Jeff Larentowicz might be part of the US national team camp in California right now, but in 2005 he was languishing in the fourth round of the MLS Supplemental Draft, waiting for his chance.
The New England Revolution gave him that chance with the ninth pick in the fourth round, and the rest is history. Larentowicz has since emerged as one of the premier central midfielders in the league, an MLS Cup champion, an MLS All-Star and a player fighting for the opportunity to help lift the US national team into the 2014 World Cup.
