One important change that came with the Harrisburg City Islanders’ move to FNB Field last year was that they would be forced to squeeze in their home matches while the Harrisburg Senators were away. That’s why the City Islanders are sometimes called to play three matches in seven days, as they did this week. Luckily, it looks like the home field advantage has gone a long way in helping the City Islanders to get past their tired legs. Harrisburg was able to go above and beyond expectations during this home stand by defeating the Richmond Kickers 1-0 on Saturday night and then following that up with a gutsy 1-1 draw against the Charlotte Independence on Tuesday.
