Union II saw its unbeaten start to 2024 come to an end last time out, falling on the road to FC Cincinnati 2 by a 3-1 scoreline. Gerardo Valenzuela proved to be the difference maker for the Ohio side as he collected a hat trick to knock off the Boys in Blue. Team captain Kyle Tucker provided the offense for Union II with a second remarkable goal off a free kick.
Despite the setback, Union II sits just one point back from the top of the Eastern Conference with 14 points earned through its first seven matches.
Huntsville City FC comes to Subaru Park on Sunday still in search of its first victory of 2024 with just three points through their first six games. All three points have come from draws in which they lost the penalty kick shootout.
The Alabama side is coming off a 1-0 home loss to conference leader's Chattanooga FC which marked the first time this season they hadn't found the back of the net. Midfielder Jonthan Bolanos is the player to watch for Union II as the 25-year-old leads the squad with three goals. All three came in late March as he notched a hat trick against Columbus Crew 2 in a losing effort.
