Glesnes and Curtin earn Team of the Week honors

Jakob Glesnes stepped in for Jack Elliott and didn't miss a beat on Sunday night, helping the Union to a 3-0 shutout win over New York Red Bulls. For his efforts, Glesnes earned a spot on the MLS Team of the Week. Brenden Aaronson made the Team of the Week bench after his golazo opened the scoring against the Union's I-95 rivals.

Jim Curtin was named MLS Coach of the Week and has his team in second place in the Eastern Conference. The Union head coach has his team flying high with one of the best defenses in Major League Soccer and an attack that still has another gear to hit.
