PORTLAND, Ore. --- Portland men's soccer alum Benji Michel was named to Haiti's preliminary 40-man roster for the 2019 Gold Cup, which is scheduled for mid-June. The preliminary rosters will serve as the basis for the final 23-man Gold Cup roster for each participating country, and the final squads are due in the first week of June.
Michel is in his first year playing with Orlando City SC of Major League Soccer. After three years with the Pilots, Michel signed a homegrown contract with Orlando City in December. He's made three appearances this season, and he made his first start last week.
