THE UNION HEAD TO WASHINGTON ... BUT NOT TO TAKE ON D.C. UNITED

Monday, three Union players spent part of their day on the south lawn of the White House, playing soccer as one part of the 134th annual White House Easter Egg Roll.

Union defender Danny Califf, defensive mid Brian Carroll and goalkeeper Zac MacMath were there repping the Union.

“Any time there’s something that’s emailed to you with ‘White House’ in the title, it’ll give you a double-take,” Califf told philadelphiaunion.com. “To be able to do this – and take my family along – is probably one of the coolest experiences I’ve had. I’m honored.”

Other MLS reps on the south lawn were: New York Red Bulls' Kenny Cooper and Stephen Keel and D.C. United’s Stephen King, Robbie Russell, Chris Pontius and head coach Ben Olsen.

Here are some photos from the event:
