Career

[edit | edit source]

Wilmington Hammerheads

[edit | edit source]

Angus was invited to the 2009 MLS Player Combine in Florida for the 2009 MLS SuperDraft.[2] Due to a strong college career, numerous pundits and journalists predicted him to go reasonably high in the draft, so it was a surprise when he went undrafted. Major League Soccer side New York Red Bulls offered him a trial, but he declined. However, soon after he signed with USL-2 side Wilmington Hammerheads FC, a team in the 3rd tier of American league soccer.

He came off the bench in the 81st minute and scored the equalizer for GAIS in the 90th minute of the match.[4][5] Angus spent time training with West Ham United at the end of the 2011 Allsvenskan season.[6] GAIS finished in last place and were relegated from the 2012 Allsvenskan. After their relegation the club announced that four of the players who were under contract would be allowed to leave for free, Angus being one of them.[7] As he was unable to find a new club during the winter transfer window he remained at GAIS for the first half of the 2013 Superettan season before eventually leaving at the end of July.[8]
