some- one who pushes the Club on every day, in training and competition,”
added Josh Wolff, Austin FC Head Coach. “He is a natural choice to be
Captain, and I know he’s going to be there when it counts, driving the team
forward, inspiring those around him, and setting the standards we expect
from our players.
