How He Got Here

Signed as a Free Agent.

 

For Every Thing There is a First Time

Hason played exactly one game in his indoor soccer career: The 1999 WISL Championship game. Starting goalkeeper Sagu was issued a Red Card Ejection for a fight that happend after the Shootout win over La Raza de Monterrey in the semi-final. Hason, who was on the roster as the backup goaltender, but had never seen a minute of action the entire season, was required to play the most important match of the season (and the only one that was televised in Dallas during the 1999 season). He allowed 3 quick goals in the first 5 minutes of play, but eventually settled down to finish the match with 6 goals allowed.

 

Did You Know?

Hason is the second player ever to wear a Sidekicks uniform only in the Playoffs. The other was goalkeeper Scott Manning, who came out of retirement when both 'Kicks goalkeepers went down with injuries.
