Heaney was given a red card in the third minute of a match against the Colorado Rapids on 25 May 1996. This stood as the MLS record for fastest ejection from a match for almost thirteen years, until Carlos Johnson established the new mark after being expelled two minutes into a New York Red Bulls 1–0 loss to the Kansas City Wizards at CommunityAmerica Ballpark on 23 April 2009.[3]
