Steel FC’s Morton earns USL Championship Team of the Week honors

CHESTER, Pa. (August 13, 2019) – After making seven saves and getting a clean sheet against MLS-bound Nashville SC, Bethlehem Steel FC goalkeeper Todd Morton was named to the USL Championship Team of the Week for Week 23.

The accolade marks the first time that Morton has earned the honor for the club and the third time in 2019 that a goalkeeper has been named to USL Championship Team of the Week while playing for the Steel. The two previous instances involved former Philadelphia Union Academy goalkeeper Tomás Romero. All seven of Morton’s saves were made in the second half of Steel FC’s match at Nashville.
