Two games into the season, Richmond is tied for top of their conference
Coming off a 3-1 win in their home opener, the Richmond Kickers looked to keep their momentum going as they traveled south to North Carolina to take on Wilmington Hammerheads FC. Away support for the Kickers was strong- the Red Army traveled well, creating a block of Kickers jerseys in Legion Stadium.
Last year, Wilmington finished at the bottom of their conference, but big changes in the off season resulted in better performances on the pitch. A new coach and fifteen new players make up the Wilmington lineup.
