TAMPA, Fla. – Reno 1868 FC forward Brian Brown has been voted the USL Championship Player of the Week for Week 2 of the 2019 season. The Jamaican forward continued his strong start to the new campaign as he scored both goals in 1868 FC’s 2-1 comeback victory against Austin Bold FC at Greater Nevada Field on Saturday afternoon.
Brown received 38 percent of the poll conducted by a national panel of independent media representing every USL Championship market, narrowly edging out Tulsa Roughnecks FC defender Luca Lobo on 33 percent after Lobo’s two-goal performance in the Roughnecks’ 5-3 win against Orange County SC.
