Islanders host Charleston twice

Written by PRIslandersFC.com Thursday, 18 June 2009 16:21

BAYAMON, PR -- Fresh off their most convincing win of the season, the Puerto Rico Islanders will look to maintain some momentum as they host a two game series against the only undefeated team in the USL First Division, Charleston Battery, starting on Thursday night from Juan Ramón Loubriel Stadium at 8 p.m.

The Islanders finished first last year during the regular season and over the past two years have been one of the best teams in the league. They will face a Charleston Battery team in first place in the overall standings and a team who has yet to lose a game this year, compiling a 6-0-6 mark for 24 points.

Charleston has played very well both at home and on the road. In fact, they have identical 3-0-3 marks as home and away team so far this year. The Battery has a very stingy defense that has only allowed 4 goals, two at home and two on the road, in 12 games this season. At one point during the season, Charleston did not allow a single goal to an opponent in five straight games while outscoring them 7-0. As their record might indicate, Charleston has played in many close and low scoring games.

The Puerto Rico Islanders will face a tough challenge this weekend with the Battery. Puerto Rico is starting to play better as of late, making this matchup with Charleston a very intriguing one.

The highest rated defense in the league, Charleston, will try to contain the most offensive team in the league, Puerto Rico. The Islanders lead the way in goals scored with 19 in twelve games played. Defender Cristian Arrieta leads the USL First Division in scoring with 15 points, mostly due in part by converting on four penalty shots in the last three games.

Puerto Rico (5-3-4) will look to increase their points total of 19 during the weekend as they try to inch closer to the Battery atop the standings.

The two-game series in the Island will also provide with two of the best golkeepers in the last two years. Bill Gaudette, goalkeeper of the year last season will face off against Charleston´s Dustin Hudock, who has played very well this year.

The two teams will face each other again on Saturday evening in Puerto Rico, before meeting one more time next week in Charleston.
