The Loons traveled to Seattle to take on the Sounders, how did we fare?

First and foremost, the Loons lineup looked slightly different today. A friendly face reappeared between the sticks to start the match, with Bobby Shuttleworth manning the net. The goalkeeper made his first appearance in all competitions in 2018, after falling out of favor to Matt Lampson who was acquired back in January from the Chicago Fire. Bobby was not the only fresh face for the Loons in the starting lineup, as rookie fullback, Carter Manley, got the start in place of Marc Burch - who is out with a calf injury. Accompanying those two on the pitch were nine other familiar faces we’ve seen in 2018.
