Major League Soccer lost one of its originals on Thursday as officials found the body of former Kansas City Wizards defender Uche Okafor dead in his Dallas-area home. He was 43.
Okafor was part of the Kansas City roster that debuted in 1996 and he played with the team until 2000, appearing in 119 regular season games and another seven in the postseason. He was part of the Kansas City team that won the MLS Cup in 2000, logging 16 minutes as a substitute in the championship game at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C., that year.
