The Tacoma Defiance are finally back at Cheney Stadium after more than a month spent flying around the western part of the country. The familiar light green shadow of the Rainiers’ baseball diamond will be a welcome sight after Defiance had their worst ever five match stretch on the road.
Their oppenent in their first game back will be the only team in the USL that they have a winning record against (11-3-0 +10), Portland Timbers 2. It’s a match Tacoma/S2 have always been able to get up for and provides the Defiance an excellent chance to get things back on the rails.
