 Unfortunately for Hutton, Houston had two very competent goalkeepers in front of him, 2003 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Pat Onstad and Zack Wells, and the young keeper did not get any playing time in the 2006 season.The Dynamo released Hutton before the 2007 preseason.After a trial with the USL First Division team Miami FC and contemplating other offers, Hutton decided to retire and return St. Louis University as a graduate assistant under the tutelage of head coach Dan Donigan.
