The Defiance are up against their first bit of schedule congestion tonight, playing just three days after their match against New Mexico FC. It looks like there will be quite a bit of rotation at Cheney as six new Sounders players, Bryan Meredith, Will Bruin, Nouhou, Román Torres, Handwalla Bwana and Jordy Delem, entered into 2019 Standard USL Loan Agreements earlier today. This likely serves to both give some Tacoma players a rest and to get some less used First Team players time ahead of their three games in eight days starting on Saturday.
