Upon occasion, sport will grant us the opportunity to witness something we never suspected we’d witness — and long after it even seemed possible.
Such an event is underway in Frisco, Texas.
At a spry 28 years-old, FC Dallas defender/midfielder Ryan Hollingshead is in the midst of a career year, posting new highs in nearly every statistical category. The California native isn’t just doing this in meaningless games where less-prominent players often pad their stats — he’s etching a new legacy for himself in the most important month yet of play for FC Dallas.
Currently, FCD is clinging onto sixth place in MLS’ Western Conference — a position that would grant them a spot in the MLS Cup Playoffs.
