MERIDIAN, Idaho – Playing their first-ever match in Idaho, T2 defeated Swope Park Rangers 2-1 in front of a sold-out crowd of 4,352 fans at Rocky Mountain High School in Meridian, Idaho, on Saturday night. Midfielders Neco Brett and Victor Arboleda both found the back of the net, while T2 recorded consecutive wins for the first time this season.

Outshooting Swope Park Rangers 6-1 in the first half, T2 (5-6-1, 16pts) opened the scoring in the 27th minute when Brett drove his free kick strike through the Swope Park wall and into the upper side netting to build an early 1-0 lead for Portland.
