Quakes take on Battery tonight
The Quakes' quest to bring home the Carolina Challenge Cup continues tonight when they take on the Charleston Battery. The game starts at 5:15 Pacific and can be watched online here. The Quakes won their first game in the tournament, 1-0 over Toronto FC in a game that was shortened due to a lightning storm. Go Quakes!
Today, MLSnet.com features a nice profile of Quakes' forward Gavin Glinton. If you've ever looked at Glinton's career stats and figured he was a marginal player because he bounced around between MLS and the USL, you may be interested in knowing that the only reason that happened was bad luck — two broken ankles in two successive years! Now that he's recuperated fully, he's looking forward to a productive year in San Jose.
We had two other links to pass along today. Thanks to reader Kevin (AKA Zungazan) for passing along a link to blogger Melissa's season preview over on theoffside.com. Melissa likens the Quakes to the Scoobies — does she mean the Buffy-Willow-Xander Scoobies or the Fred-Daphne-Velma Scoobies? We're betting it's the former, so does that mean our team features Gavin the Galaxy Slayer? Hmmm...
Finally, the Cary News has more information on Chris Carrieri's retirement.
