    I coach a U11 team who are going to be escorting SKC out onto the field when they play in DC on May 9th. We have to submit an order of our players to line up and I was hoping to figure out which order the SKC players line up so I can match some things up. Do they always line up in the same order? If so, are any of you able to list it out for me?

    Thanks in advance!

    I can't help at all, but this is a pretty cool question. I'm interested just for the sake of general knowledge.

    Hmm. I can't say I've paid that much attention. The one and only 2015 picture I can find (from the season opener) shows Besler (Captain), Marin (GK), Anor, Feilhaber and Zusi leading the line out of the tunnel. My often faulty memory says that Espinoza tends to be in the middle and Dwyer towards the end.

    I'll try and get it at the game this Sunday.

    For the last match on 4-25 v. Houston, it went: Besler, Marin, Zusi, Anibaba, Benny, Roger, Carrasco, de Jong, Dom, Ellis, Nemeth. (I have it on DVR, and just rewatched the walk out.)

    Go Terps!

    It's always (1) Captain then (2) Goalkeeper (not necessarily mutually exclusive, of course), but I flunk the test after that.

    If it's the same as the video intro it's just captian then gk then numerical for the rest isn't it?

    (No idea if it's the same as the video though)

    If you're talking about the order in the video I just watched, no, it's not numerical, or even positional, after the Captain and Keeper. I'd have to find another match to see how it pans out vs. other starters, but at this point, the order (if there even is one after captain- gk) may be a mystery known only to the players.

    this is the type of video i am talking about...always with muse-hysteria.

    old, but numerical.

    Again, I still have no idea if this is the same order as they come down the tunnel, so it might be irrelevant to the question hah

    For Opening Day v. NYRB it was: Besler, Marin, Anor, Benny, Zusi, Dia, Dom, Ike, Roger, Seth, Nemeth.

    So the only similar positions were Besler, Marin . . . Nemeth.

    It doesn't appear they really care too much, unless maybe a few superstitious after a good game.

    Ah, that's just what the field announcer reads as they show players on the video screen, so yes, apparently numerical from that perspective, but not the walkout.

    OK, that was my only theory. Sorry for potentially misleading you OP!

    Thanks for the help guys. I was hoping to match my son up with Zusi because of the Terps connection, but I guess it will just be a crap shoot.

    I had my son lined up fifth to try and match him with Zusi, but he was fourth. Oh well. He had Roger Espinoza.
