    FYI Standard-Times will run stories Sat and Sun , home games only, and Don has a weekly column that runs every Wed.

    Unfortunately, some of the above newspapers now require that you sign up to access their content, and not everyone is willing to do that.

    Many thanks for posting these contacts.


    Vega's articles also appear in the MetroWest Daily News (also associated with the Herald). He covers Breakers, Renegades and sometimes the US Nats as well. I think it's usually in notebook form. For example:

    Mike Biglin also writes articles for the MetroWest Daily News from time to time. I remember a few US articles during the World Cup. Also covers Revs. Currently, it appears he's been reporting on high school sports. Might mean Vega will be the only soccer guy.
