[edit] Career

[edit] Youth and College

Marshall moved to the Fort Lauderdale, Florida area when he was twelve years old. He attended Lindsey Wilson College from 1994 to 1995 before transferring to Florida International University where he played on the men's soccer team from 1996 to 1997.

[edit] Professional

Marshall was drafted by the Colorado Rapids with the 11th overall pick of the 1998 MLS College Draft. He played only one game for Colorado, then was dealt, along with Jason Boyce, to the Miami Fusion on 14 August 1998 in exchange for David Vaudreuil.

Marshall would spend the next three and a half seasons in Miami, starting as a forward and eventually drifting to the midfield and then the defense. After the Fusion folded, Marshall was picked up by the Los Angeles Galaxy.

Marshall was the ninth pick of the 2002 MLS Allocation Draft, helping LA to the 2002 MLS Cup.

On 13 June 2007, Marshall received a red card for a tackle which broke the leg of FC Dallas forward Kenny Cooper in the 89th minute. The red card carries a mandatory one-game suspension and $250 fine, but the MLS Disciplinary Committee decided unanimously to extend the suspension two additional games and an additional fine of $1,250.[1]

He was traded to Toronto FC for Edson Buddle on 13 June 2007 after over five seasons with the Galaxy. Marshall cemented his place in Toronto's defense, and went on to make 16 starts during the 2007 season. Marshall managed to get revenge on his former side when Toronto earned their first win of the 2008 season in Los Angeles.

Seattle Sounders FC 2010

Marshall was traded to Seattle Sounders FC on 10 February 2009 for allocation money.[2]

He scored his first goal for the Sounders against the Chicago Fire as the game finished 1-1. He also assisted a goal by Steve Zakuani in a match against San Jose. However in the 86th minute in a match against D.C. United, Marshall accidentally scored an own goal with his head, and the game finished 3-3. He scored his second goal for the club on October 17, in a game against the Kansas City Wizards.

After the 2010 MLS season Seattle declined Marshall's contract option and Marshall elected to participate in the 2010 MLS Re-Entry Draft. On 15 December 2010 Marshall was selected by the Colorado Rapids in Stage 2 of the Re-Entry draft.[3] Marshall agreed to the terms of his contract on 3 January 2011 officially completing the transfer.[4]

[edit] International

Marshall is a regular with the Jamaican national team. He appeared in 81 matches from 2000-2010 before retiring from international football in January 2010, after appearing versus Canada.
