Three days before the Swope Park Rangers were set to play in the first playoff match in club history, head coach Marc Dos Santos stressed the need for an approach that mirrored the previous six months. And so as the Rangers prepared for the United Soccer League postseason, the training sessions remain unchanged. The meeting schedule was unaltered. The scouting reports offered uniformity.
The result remained consistent, too.
The Swope Park Rangers extended a hot streak into the playoffs with a 3-0 victory Friday against the LA Galaxy II in the USL Western Conference quarterfinals at Swope Soccer Village.
