    Also receiving invites to training camp are Republic FC Academy goalkeeper Diego Ramos and midfielder Julian Chavez. Ramos signed his first ‘USL Academy’ contract in July of 2019, allowing the 17-year-old goalkeeper to be an available substitute in five USL regular season matches this past season. Chavez has competed in 10 USSDA matches this season with the Republic FC U-19s and scored five goals. The midfielder has 36 goals in his SRFC Academy career.

    Two trialists, Khalid Balogun and Ashkanov Apollon, earned invitations to training camp after impressing during open tryouts last weekend and have an opportunity to join the team for the 2020 regular season. Balogun, a six-foot-four forward, played his college ball at St. Mary’s College of Maryland where the striker scored 12 goals, registered seven assists and was named the St. Mary’s Athlete of the Month for September during his senior season in 2018. Ashkanov, a versatile winger/fullback plied his trade in Thailand before joining the Seattle Sounders U-23 team for one season before returning to play professionally in Thailand.

    Well, he won't be hard to find in our sea of 5'8" corner-kick targets.

    This roster may have the largest number of returnees we've ever had (if you count RoRo as a returnee).

    Grinwis has torn both his ACL and MCL. The club says "his return has not been set.." In other words, out for the year.

    Diaz is the guy between the posts for now.
