Preseason is well underway for Sporting Kansas City who will return to action this Saturday to face Phoenix Rising FC of the USL Championship. Phoenix have hosted Sporting KC for the last several preseasons and made their facilities available to the club. As a part of that hosting experience, the teams routinely face off with one another.
SKC are surprisingly not perfect against their second division foes, going 3-1 (not counting games against trialists) since they started facing off in the preseason.
I had forgot about those preseason goals from Harris. Maybe this is why I was clinging to “play him with the starters” all season.
