Blake Brettscheider Q&A

WASHINGTON ? It?s always an uphill battle for any Supplemental Draft pick to make a roster, let alone make an impact in MLS.

But D.C. United rookie forward Blake Brettschneider has managed to do just that in 2011, becoming one of only a few Supplemental picks to see significant action this season. In 11 appearances (eight starts), the University of South Carolina product has a goal and two assists.

MLSsoccer.com caught up with the rookie as he prepares for the final 10 games of the season.
