		Wegerle's goal came in the 55th minute, the product of a sequence started by defender Frankie Hejduk who headed the ball into the middle of the field at the top of the penalty box.
		Wynalda, teaming with Wegerle for the first time up front under Sampson, was back in his familiar striker position after playing the last match in the flank midfield.

		Roy Wegerle has been in the news quite a bit recently, most recently for innocently saying that good American players should go abroad if the U.S. team is ever going to go anywhere internationally.
		When you type in "Roy Wegerle," the first site that comes up is The Phoenix Center, and Roy’s testimony for their work in rehabilitating his knee after eight surgeries.
		So it seems like Roy Wegerle is on a mission to avoid induction into the U.S. Soccer Hall of Fame, if only out of the sick, helpless dread that the prospect of his induction speech would inspire at this point.

		Wegerle, traded to D.C. from Colorado on July 3, opened the scoring in the 13th minute on a brilliant pass from Moreno -- who would have been offsides on the play, but Revolution central defender Alexi Lalas was tardy getting back on an offsides trap.
		Tony Sanneh tried to pass to Moreno in the middle of the penalty area, but the ball slid past Moreno to Wegerle, who was all alone at the far post for the easy score.

		Yes, Wegerle, the son of former Tampa Bay Rowdie Steve Wegerle and nephew of Roy Wegerle (who played in the 1998 World Cup for the U.S.), has grabbed more attention with his name and accolades, but this season there was no denying Boswell either.
		Boswell led the county with 25 goals (playing 10 fewer games than Wegerle), helped Plant to a 13-3-1 record and a district title -- and he did it after the Panthers went 2-13-1 and finished last in their district a year ago.
		It was a bittersweet ending to a season in which Wegerle, who transferred last summer from Jesuit, set a school record with 24 goals, including an extraordinary five-goal run in seven playoff games.

		Harkes and Wegerle reported the calls to the USSF, and coach Steve Sampson had a meeting with the team in which he warned the players that any shenanigans could lead to their permanent bans from international soccer and serious FIFA sanctions against the USSF.
		In other words, Wegerle not only lied to me in '97 about what had happened, but he now erroneously makes a serious allegation in a widely read publication that the Mexican federation was the source.
