Like D.C. United, Loudoun United was off last week over the international break. Like D.C. United, Loudoun saw a starter called up for United States duty (in this case, loanee Donovan Pines played with the U-23s). Like D.C. United, Loudoun finds themselves in Florida this weekend, though that’s where things tend to diverge a little bit.
Key player: Griffin Yow
OK, this MAY be a little hyperbole as Yow will be less ‘key’ and more THE guy to watch. He went from subbing on (and impressing) against Nashville in Game 1 to starting and scoring the first goal in team history in Game 2 against Memphis.
