Career
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.
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 August 14, 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. He was traded to Toronto FC for Edson Buddle on 13 June 2007 after 5+ seasons with the Galaxy. Marshall cemented his place in Toronto's defence, 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.
Marshall was traded to Seattle Sounders FC on February 10, 2009 for allocation money.[1]
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 86 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 2nd goal for the club on October 17th, in a game against the Kansas City Wizards.
Controversy
On June 13, 2007 Marshall was suspended three games and fined $1,500 for serious foul play in a game on June 9. Marshall, then playing for the Los Angeles Galaxy, received a red card for a tackle on 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 further sanction Marshall's action, adding two additional games of suspension and an additional fine of $1,250. Cooper's leg was broken on the play.[2]
International
Marshall is a regular with the Jamaican national team.
