Sounders FC 2 (5-18-5, 20 points) and Rio Grande Valley FC (5-11-13, 28 points) on Saturday will square off for the second and final time this season. S2 won the first match on April 14 in Tacoma, 3-2. In the first meeting between the teams at Cheney Sta- dium, Azriel Gonzalez’s first professional goal was the match-winner for Seattle. Felix Chenkam scored his sec- ond and third goals of the season, including one in the first minute of the game. Matias Zaldivar and Guillermo Delgado each netted a goal for RGV. S2 on Saturday will look to snap a two-game losing skid, while Rio Grande Valley is unbeaten in its last two match- es (1-0-1).

Sounders FC 2 (5-18-5, 20 points) last Saturday had its five-game home unbeaten streak snapped with a 1-0 loss to Phoenix Rising FC (17-7-5, 56 points) at Cheney Stadium in Tacoma. The loss was S2’s first in front of the home supporters in more than two months, dating back to July 8 against Reno 1868 FC. Seattle posted a 2-0-3 mark in its previous five home games.

Chris Cortez scored the lone marker of the match in the 16th minute after a long buildup. He found a loose ball inside the area and buried it past S2 goalkeeper Calle Brown to the bottom right corner of the goal. The tally was Cortez’s team-leading 16th of the season, and he now ranks tied for second in the USL in goals scored, three behind the league leader, Cameron Lancaster of Louisville City FC.

Sounders FC 2 defender Jalen Markey made the first start of his career and played the full 90 minutes, just nine days after being signed to S2’s roster. S2 saw appearances from three First Team players in Brown, Handwalla Bwana and Henry Wingo, while Khai Brisco was the lone Sounders Academy player to suit up for S2.

S2 RELEASES RAY SAARISeattle Sounders FC 2 on September 13 announced that it released midfielder Ray Saari. He appeared in 39 games in two seasons for S2 and recorded four goals and six assists. Saari started in 11 of 12 appearances this season, scoring two goals and adding two assists. He also appeared in each of Sounders FC’s three Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup matches over the past two seasons. Saari last appeared for S2 on July 8 and had been sidelined since with a hamstring strain.

“We’d like to thank Ray for his time with our organization,” said Sounders FC Director of Player Development Marc Nicholls. “He was always a true professional while he was here, and we wish him nothing but the best in the future.”

Saari signed with Seattle on March 22, 2017 after a four-year career at the University of Tulsa. He started in 53 of 69 games for the Golden Hurricane and recorded 12 goals and 12 assists. The Kansas City native was twice named to the American Athletic Conference Second Team All-Conference squad.

HEAD COACH JOHN HUTCHINSON

On Shandon Hopeau being named captain for S2’s last match:

“Shandon has taken huge steps forward this season for us. Probably at the start of the season, we didn’t see him in that role. There’s two types of leaders: There’s a leader that barks and shouts, and there’s a leader that leads by example. He’s the second one, that leads by example. For me, Shandon can possibly be one of the best players we have this season. We’re just trying to get that end product happening for him. With Ray Saari leaving, and Sam Rogers stepping up to be the full-time captain, and he’s still coming back from injury and not ready to play 90 minutes. Shandon has taken over that role and he’s done a good job. The boys like him. He works hard. He’s changed his attitude and mentality to where we want him to be.”

From 2001-2004, Hutchinson played for the Northern Spirit, a Sydney-based club, then joined Manly United in 2004 as the club’s captain. The final 10 years of his career were spent with the A-League’s Central Coast Mariners, where he set a club record with 268 total appearances and scored 18 goals. A three-year captain for the Mariners, Hutchinson was

part of the 2013 Grand Final champion squad. He also went on loan with the Chendu Blades in the China Super League.

Eligible due to his grandmother’s Maltese decent, Hutchinson earned 11 caps for Malta. He made his first ap-pearance in a 2010 FIFA World Cup Qualifier against Sweden. During the 2015 season, Hutchinson, who has a Coaching A license, made a seamless transition to the technical side for the Mariners, where he served as a coach through the 2016 campaign before joining S2.

Sounders FC Academy coach Wade Webber joined Hutchinson’s staff as S2 Assistant Coach prior to the 2018 season. The former Sounder brings a decade of professional playing experi-ence, including 53 MLS appearances for Dallas and Miami from 1997-1999. Since retiring from playing in 1999, Webber has coached youth soccer extensively throughout Western Washing-ton, including the last two seasons with the Sounders FC Academy and the previous seven as Director of Coaching for Washington Premier FC. Webber has a USSF A License and a Master’s Degree in Teaching from Seattle University. He has also served as a radio analyst for Sounders FC broadcasts since 2012.

tion with a scouting role for Montreal Impact. Nicholls holds his USSF National “A” License, the FIFA Futuro III program, as well as the prestigious French Formation License.
