Wolyniec on Stroud: "He's Going to be a Leader on This Team"

Jared Stroud was given the captain’s armband for the first time, this past Friday in a 3-2 victory over Memphis 901 FC.

Head Coach John Wolyniec praised his captain for his performance against Memphis 901 FC. “He is a good player and we value him highly.”

“We gave him the captain’s armband and he scores a goal. Again, overall positive for him. We challenged him a little bit this week to put himself in some better spots”, Wolyniec said.

Stroud has enjoyed a great start to the 2019 USL Championship. He tallied an assist in NYRB II’s victory against Swope Park Rangers and added a goal against Memphis 901 FC this past Friday night.
