The Quakes have called up Mohamed Thiaw and Kevin Partida for the Fourth Round Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup match against the Portland Timbers on Wednesday, June 6. The Quakes selected Thiaw (University of Louisville, No. 35) and Partida (University of Nevada, Las Vegas, No. 58) in the 2018 MLS SuperDraft, and later signed Thiaw while Partida signed with the club’s USL affiliate Reno 1868 FC.
Thiaw has spent the 2018 season on loan with Reno, making 10 appearances. He was named to the USL Team of the Week twice in May after tallying two goals and two assists during the month.
