Entering the 2015 season, Aaron Maund and Justen Glad were not expected to see much in terms of playing time. The young defensive duo had stalwarts Jamison Olave and Chris Schuler and newly-signed Guatemalan international Elias Vasquez to compete with for center back minutes. Fast forward to 2016 and the youngest center back tandem in MLS is strong and getting stronger as Real Salt Lake storms through a busy May road calendar.
After posting a 3-1 win over Sporting Kansas City on Saturday, RSL is now a perfect 5-0-0 when starting Glad and Maund together, sporting a cool 0.
