The weather served as a metaphor for Loudoun United’s play as of late, with rain and lightning delaying the start of the game by 86 minutes, then a second round of storms delayed the second half by an additional XX minutes. This did not deter Memphis 901 FC, winners of five of their last six, as they scored early and maintained the game en route to a 3-0 win in front of 1,106 at Segra Field, pushing Loudoun’s losing streak to eight.
Loudoun had more than the usual number of loan down players from D.C. United, with Ted Ku-DiPietro, Griffin Yow and Jackson Hopkins starting next to the usual duo of Jeremy Garay and Jacob Greene; Kimarni Smith and Hayden Sargis were on the bench for the Red-and-White, as Joe Rice started for the injured Luis Zamudio.
