On April 26, 2008 Columbus Crew coach Sigi Schmid became only the second coach in Major League Soccer history to win 100 matches. Memorabilia from the game has been placed on display in the MLS case at the Hall of Fame.
On display in the Museum is the sweatshirt Schmid wore at the match and a game ball signed by the entire Crew squad. "It is a great honor to reach 100 wins," Schmid said. "I am proud of all the good players and teams I have been privileged to coach. Having this accomplishment recognized and displayed at the National Soccer Hall of Fame is something I will treasure always."
"It's a difficult proposition to win 100 matches in a league with such great parity," Hall of Fame President Steve Baumann said. "We congratulate Sigi on his accomplishment and wish him many more wins as he tries to bypass current U.S. National Team coach Bob Bradley." Bradley set the MLS wins record at 124.
