Snow in early September?

Littleton native Cole Bassett could only laugh.

“I’ve never had snow in September,” said the 19-year-old Rapids midfielder, who was named to the MLS Team of the Week for his performance last Saturday. “I saw something that this was the first time in 20 years it’s going to happen in September, I’m glad to see snow.”

With snow falling in the city Tuesday and temperatures predicted to be about 50 degrees colder than Colorado’s last home game, the match against the Houston Dynamo on Wednesday night at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park may have a different feel.
