Storey Heads Home to Houston

Former Tarheel Marcus Storey has been traded from Columbus to Houston in return for Houston's natural second-round pick in the 2007 Supplemental Draft.

The 24-year-old Houston, Texas native will return to his hometown after playing in 12 games for Columbus Crew last season. Storey started three games for the Crew and recorded one assist. He was selected in the second round (No. 20 overall) of the 2005 MLS SuperDraft.
