The Real Monarchs SLC have made quite the impressive jump this season in the United Soccer League. The Real Salt Lake reserve side are currently the top team in USL with an impressive 51 points through 22 matches, ten more points than their closest competitor. On their way, they’ve set the USL for most consecutive wins, and are tied with Reno 1868 FC for a league best plus-24 goal difference.
The figures and stats are definitely impressive, but arguably the most impressive feat is how far the Monarchs have come in just their third season. The SLC side took dead last in the Western Conference in their first season and only climbed up to eleventh last season.
