[edit] Career

[edit] Youth and College

Sassano attended Miramonte High School in Orinda, California, and played college soccer at the University of California, Berkeley. He was an All Pac-10 Honorable Mention in 2005, a Pac-10 All-Academic Honorable Mention in 2007, and featured in a total of 64 games scoring four goals and registering 19 assists during his four-year career for the Golden Bears. During his college years Sassano also played for USL Premier Development League sides San Francisco Seals and San Jose Frogs.

[edit] Professional

Sassano was drafted with the 32nd pick of the 2008 MLS SuperDraft by Red Bull New York, and made his debut on 5 April, 2008 in a home game against Columbus Crew. He was a valuable member of the squad in 2008 as his versatility enabled him to receive significant playing time in his rookie campaign. With the injury to starting defensive midfielder Seth Stammler, Sassano was inserted into the starting lineup for the clubs first round MLS Playoff series against the defending champion Houston Dynamo. Sassano's solid defensive play helped the club upset heavily favored Houston 4-1 on aggregate, helping the club reach the Western Conference Final.

During his second season, Sassano featured in 17 regular season games playing primarily as a defensive midfielder. Following the 2009 Major League Soccer season, Sassano went on a three week training stint with sister club FC Red Bull Salzburg.
