Quakes try pair from T and T
It's been a quiet few days for the Quakes as they prepare to head east for the Carolina Challenge Cup. The annual pre-season tourney starts Saturday, with San Jose taking on Toronto, to be followed by matches next Wednesday against the USL's Charleston Battery and wrapping up on March 22 against los Toros Rojos of New York.
Meanwhile, some news has surfaced regarding two players who will be joining the Quakes on trial, both from the Caribbean nation of Trinidad and Tobago. The Trinidad Express reports that Conrad Smith and Hayden Tinto, both of whom play for T&T side Caledonia AIA, are hoping to earn an MLS contract before the start of the season. According to the article, Smith left the islands two weeks ago and Tinto will be departing soon.
Speaking of departures, it was reported over the weekend that reporter Barry Witt is no longer with the Mercury News. While we will not celebrate anyone losing his job, we will say that Witt's repeated inability to acknowledge anything positive regarding either the Earthquakes or owner Lew Wolff will not be missed.
