The Switchbacks face their biggest test of the season in a game with playoff implications.
Saying a game is a "must win" is one of those sports cliches that the more you hear it, the less meaning it has. And the more "must win" games you have, odds are the worse you are doing. As is the story with the 2016 edition of the Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC. After starting strong, the team has started slipping, letting wins become ties, and ties to become losses. The dynamic powerful offense of 2105 is gone, replaced with a defensive team that has been near the top of the USL all season.
