The USL regular season came to a close and thus I feel it is time to look back on how the various Whitecaps prospects who went out on loan did this year. It’s no secret that it was a bit of a disappointing year as far as player development went but there were still some positives.
Spencer Richey:
Richey began the year as the backup to Cincinnati’s very capable veteran goalkeeper Evan Newton (In fact as this article was being written Newton was awarded USL goalkeeper of the year). By midseason he had become a sort of 1B option and played about 1⁄3 of the games and after several man of the match performances Richey seems to be first choice going into the USL playoffs.
