By now, most Colorado Rapids fans have heard that our Burgundy Boys are playing the Las Vegas Lights in a preseason match, but today it was made official.
In about a month (!) the guys will be reporting back for physicals and strength testing, and then instead of going to Arizona, the Rapids are heading to Florida, Southern California, and yes—Las Vegas.
Their first preseason test will be against new-to-MLS side FC Cincinnati on February 2nd and will finish up against the LA Galaxy on February 24th.
