Rudy graduated in December after\u00a0starting all 23 games for the Hoyas in 2014, registering two\u00a0goals and three assists.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is a terrific opportunity for Tyler and we&#8217;re so happy for him,&#8221; said Georgetown Head Coach Brian Wiese in a Georgetown release. &#8220;He worked hard to graduate early and he has a bright future in soccer and beyond. In his time here, he has always surpassed expectation, and I expect that ability to serve him well in his professional career.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Rudy appeared in 88 games\u00a0(71 starts)\u00a0in his Georgetown career, recording seven goals with 12 assists for 26 points. He was named to the\u00a0All-BIG EAST Second Team this year and was a\u00a0BIG EAST All-Academic selection<\/p>\n<p>As a discovery selection, the Revolution will hold\u00a0exclusive MLS negotiating rights with Rudy until the end of the MLS season.<\/p>\n<p>The 5-foot-10\u00a0Olney, Md. native was part of the\u00a0D.C. United Academy and was listed as a midfielder\/defender at Georgetown, though he saw most of his time in midfield. He has seen time with the D.C.
