The New York Red Bulls will play their third preseason game in Tucson on Wednesday when they meet Columbus Crew.
Tim Parker, who recorded 2,387 minutes in the 2019 season, has provided a voice of leadership throughout the preseason camps in Florida and Arizona.
“Preseason has been going pretty well, there's a new leadership group that we have going on around here,” he said. “So taking ownership of that, and then getting these young guys to buy into the system, how we want to play, and how we want to do things, it's pretty important.”
The leadership provided by players like Parker, Ryan Meara and Sean Davis has been instrumental as the team integrates young and new players into the team.
