Forward Michael Karim and defender Lugens Cajuste have added their names to the list of players looking to claim a roster spot with Ray Hudson’s club.

Anyone have more info on these two guys?

“Crossbar” is in the rearview mirror as “Horseshoe” has taken center stage. The game is played in pairs. With cones set up 30-yards apart, one player serves a ball (from one cone) in the air to his partner (at the other) who must settle the ball to the ground. After each round is complete, the ball sitting closest to the cone earns a point. First team to ten wins.

Cajuste appears to be a common name from Haiti. He doesn't come up on google, so unlikely to be from a college program in the states.

Perhaps a young player from Haiti?

Michael Karim is a Hatian who grew up in the States and played at NC State. So maybe there's a connection between the two players that they were invited in at the same time.

Interesting stuff. Glad we get these practice updates.

Great. Another "closest to the target" game. How about a new game, based on the sales competition in Glengarry Glen Ross? Hit the target, keep your job. Second prize is a set of steak knives...
