Gaddis’s leadership and recent offensive contributions vital for Union

While it’s the teenage center backs in the middle and a resurgent Keegan Rosenberry who have gotten a bulk of the attention this season on the Union back line, the job veteran leader Raymon Gaddis has done in recent weeks at left back deserves mention too.

During his seven starts this season, the Union have won four times and conceded only nine times. For the season, the Union back line as a whole has conceded just 16 times, which is third-best in the conference.

“It’s a blessing to play for the gold and blue,” Gaddis said in an interview last week.
